'Serial Box' is a new subscription service that provides weekly e-book installments. While there are a number of digital subscription services for movies, music and television, there is no comparable service for book lovers. Serial Box provides a new way for bookworms to get their hands on new literature.
The service works by combining a subscription box delivery with weekly digital downloads. Serial Box allows users to subscribe to different stories and then pay for each weekly installment. Each season of a story contains between 13 and 16 installments, which can be enjoyed in text or audio format. The serialized format is similar to a podcast series, which allows users to follow a story over a long period of time.
The e-book subscription service is perfect for those who want to squeeze a little extra reading time into their week.
