Hive and The Reading Agency

The Reading Agency loves books, in every form, and we know you do too. We love it when people borrow books in every format from their brilliant local libraries. We love it when reading groups get exclusive free proofs from our publisher partners. We love it when readers pick up a pre-loved book from a second-hand bookshop for a song. And we love it when you buy yourself or someone else a brand new book from a high street bookshop or an ethical online site. We also know that buying online is quick and convenient for our busy lives.

We are proud to recommend Hive, an online shop selling books, DVDs and book related gifts. With every sale made through the links on our website, Hive will donate money both to us and to the independent bookshop of your choice. Delivery is free and their customer service is excellent.

To buy books through Hive, use any of the links on the Reading Groups for Everyone website, or click the graphic below.
