How it Began

The Book Taster was founded by Jenna, who, whilst juggling motherhood, being a Primary School Teacher & a book worm, devouring books at a rate of knots! Jenna set up The Book Taster when she was unable to find a one-off bookish gift box for a friend who needed a little ‘pick me up’. When unable to find anything on the market, Jenna curated her own box which was warmly received. Repeating this a few times and not only enjoying the process but how the gift went down- the idea of ‘The Book Taster’ was born. 

An advocate of self-care for all, Jenna set about curating the ‘Book Tasting Boxes’ you see today, to enable others to spread the message of ‘self-care’ and have find alternative, longer lasting gift than that of sending flowers! As they say, a book is a gift you can open time and time again after all! 

Jenna runs the company from her home in the Midlands, where she own far too many books!
