I LOVE my Advent Book Calendar! It has been my favourite purchase all year and I will definitely do it again next year. I adore the beautiful wrapping paper, and the books I have opened so far are excellent.
Bibliojoyful. A parcel, full of parcels wrapped in glorious colours and joyful scenes. Christmas magic at work. I am in a joyfully impressed state, I look forward to lazy hammock summer days reading.
Perfect bookish present to myself. I am so glad I was told about this. Each year I get myself a chocolate advent calendar, so being able to get a new book and a piece of chocolate each day was the perfect lead up to Christmas.

Advent Frequently Asked Questions
Book Grocer's only website is bookgrocer.com - we do not have another website selling Book Advent Calendars at a discount. Be careful clicking links through Facebook and Instagram as we are aware there are some imitation sites out there offering Advent Book Boxes for USD30. These are scam sites. If you have made a purchase through one of these sites, you should immediately start a chargeback process with your bank or credit card.
We individually select 24 books for each genre of Advent. Then, we wrap and number each book, before building the Advent boxes at our Melbourne warehouse. The price of the box (and our Advent Crime 2023 is discounted at AUD160) only just covers the cost of the books, wrapping paper and the time it takes to wrap and put together the boxes.
As far as we know, Book Grocer is the only supplier of 24-book Book Advent Calendars in the world, and we ship throughout Australia, NZ, US, UK, EU and Singapore.
