Membership Plans

Delivery /Membership details : Just as different people have different likes/ dislikes in their choice of reading material, so do different people read differently. Some read to pass time between activities, some are dinner readers and some prefer to unwind from a long day with a book in bed. Some are heavy readers, preferring to finish a book at one sitting, while other like to read and re-read sections absorbing the story line like a connoisseur would drink tea or eat chocolate absorbing the flavors before swallowing.
To cater to the different tastes , styles and reading speeds we offer the following borrowing options :
