What customers are saying about Tuma's Books: 

Good morning!! I just wanted to express, that your work is enriching lives, and I am so grateful to have found you. I had always given poetry a shrug, simply because the poetry we read in school was always so... not up my alley. And then I received your March book club (Poukahangatus) along with a surprise book, (Corazon) and I have found a new found love for poetry, and see that I may have just been looking in the wrong places this entire time. Those two poetry books resonated with me so much, I am now expanding my collection, and found Velvet Dragonflies by Billy Chapata. I am already so in love with this book, and I have you to thank for that. So thank you, thank you for doing what you do each and every day, because truly, it does make a difference. May you have a lovely rest of your day :) - Lyn, Instagram DM

Tuma always picks out the BEST books when curating my monthly Mystery Date with a Book! Whether it's a book that's been on my tbr for way too long, or a totally new-to-me book I didn't know I needed in my life, I get so excited to see what she sends every month. She cares about her customers, and she cares about books. A million stars.

Such a Fun Monthly Surprise!

I absolutely love the thrill of getting my bookmark and sticker subscription each month! It always brings me joy 😊 Tuma picks really great things to include, and I like learning about the different makers she gets these items from. This month’s Peruvian bookmark was absolutely beautiful! My wife saw it and said she wants to sign up now too :) Thanks for this fun monthly surprise that helps me through all the chaos of teacher/doctoral student life!

Wonderful

Tuma did such an excellent job curating titles for this mystery box (March) and I am SO excited to dive into them- I was sent Segu: A Novel and The Dangers of Smoking In Bed. I love short stories in particular and got drawn in by a random page I opened upon the books arrival - thanks for taking such care in your curation, Tuma!

A surprise I actually like!

This is one of the best things I have a subscription for. There is nothing better than a surprise book in the mail every month! Tuma does a great job taking into account books I already own from her store and she makes sure to select something I will like. This is a fantastic service and well worth the money!

Rewards Program

Tuma recently shifted the rewards program for the store, and I am very excited for the new perks, especially free shipping! Well worth it to me!

Tuma does it again!

Tuma always picks a fun surprise book. This time, I got one I have read from the library, but it's like she knew that I would appreciate my own copy to re-read. I'm so glad that Tuma keeps expanding my literary experiences because I would not have checked it out in the first place had Tuma not offered it as an option!

Great read

Loved this book. It was unique and had unexpected twists. It was eye opening as well.

Heartbreakingly beautiful Jewish LGBTQ book

A meeting of two prophets is a Heartbreaking and beautiful YA LGBTQ coming of age story. Mo and Moishe are a beautiful couple. Mental health rep, Jewish Rep, Muslim rep and LGBTQ representation mixed together.

Tuma does it again!

In my Blind book box this month I got Michelle Obama's memoir, Becoming. This is one I've had my eye passively one so it was a great surprise!

The Spooky Bundle is HAUNTING

I read When No One is Watching, and I have to say that is a GREAT addition to the spooky bundle. I’ve started on The Silence of Bones and it’s really good too so this is definitely a good bundle to get during the spooky seasons ❤️

Fresh, sexy, emotional - so good!

Loved this book. It was hard to put down. So many good things about it. The characters were genuine and relatable and lovable. The story was fresh and had pop culture references that were modern. My criticism comes as a privileged white woman so take that as it is. I didn't love some parts. I think there was some classism and stereotypes that didn't need to be in it. This book was full of Black love and Black friendship and Black success and I think it could have been just as wonderful without some of the negativity I guess? I don't know how else to write without spoilers. Overall, one of my favorite books of the year and I think it's a book that I'll remember for years down the road. It was a beautiful story and I loved it.

Tuma's Choices are the Best!

Tuma always picks out great books for the blind book box! I have gotten quite a few books from her in the past and she takes that into account when picking a book for me.

An Amazing pick!

This month Tuma picked an Indigenous author for me, which was perfect timing for October 10th! I love discovering new books with this membership.
