What our customer think...

I've bought a few books from The Blind Date Book Company & they are all gifts. Katy has provided incredible customer service. I plan to buy more books from her as I LOVE this idea. It's exciting and super cute. I can't recommend enough. 100% for customer service. Gift wrapping is stunning & it's just awesome. I'm in love with it all. I can't praise enough. Super excited to order my own book! X

I loved this whole process. My book came beautifully wrapped and with a high quality Teapigs tea bag. The book itself was signed and I'm really looking forward to reading it. I will definitely treat myself with another book in future.

Michelle

Very nice idea. Was very excited to receive my surprise book and hot chocolate...with marshmallows. Not something I would have picked for myself to read, so this will be a nice change of pace. Very pleased.

Natalie

Such a great idea, I bought a book for myself and it turned out to be one of the best books I have ever read. Will defo be buying some of these for Christmas presents.
