Paper Dots September 2014 Review
Paper Dots is a book subscription box, that sent me this box to review. Paper Dots is $24.00 a month for a paper back and $30.00 a month for a hardback book. In your box, you will also get a bonus item. When you sign up, you fill out a questionnaire, so they can match you with the right book.
The Details:
Cost: $25.00/month for paperback, $30.00/month for a hardback
What's in the box? “One handpicked, expert-curated book will be delivered to your doorstep each month to engage and entice you into becoming a committed reader. Plus, we'll help the words come off the page and into your life with a little something extra. “
What if I don't like the book? If you don't like the box, send the box and they will cover the shipping.

Paper Dots ships in a plain brown box and ships by Media Mail.
First Look
3096 Days in Captivity by Natascha Kampusch: $8.99 This book is about girl who was kidnapped in 1998 and kept a prisoner for 8 years. This looks like a good book and I haven't heard of this story. It is on sale on Amazon for $8.99 and it has a MSRP of $9.99.
Hope Ball Chain Ball Necklace: $1.00: This is a Hope necklace on a chain ball necklace. I can see this fits with the theme of the book, but the necklace really isn't my style.
Final Thought: This box had a total value of around $10.00. The book does look interesting and it is definitely something I will read. The necklace wasn't my taste and doesn't seem to have much value, though it did go with the book. I was disappointed in this box, because the book had only a $9-$10.00 value. While I understand part of the value of this box, is to have a book picked out for you, I don't feel like this box had the $25.00 value. If you want to try Paper Dots, click HERE.

Hmmm…don’t see this sub box being worthwhile at all. I can’t believe the pricing. If there are enough people willing to pay for such I thing, I’d start this business too lol! What a profit margin!
