Are you talking about the book club you can join? I joined it. They
have a wide variety of books and they're the same ones you would get
anywhere else. It's like any club - you get a lot of books for not much
in the beginning and then you have to buy some more at somewhat inflated
prices when you include the S&H. I think it works out to my benefit
plus I so enjoy getting the flyer every month and browsing through all
the interesting topics.

If there's only one kind of craft that interests you - such as crochet
or knitting - I'm not sure you'd find a very large selection. It's more
the variety than the thoroughness that's appealing.

I belong to this book club.
It's been my experience with
book clubs that I do best if I
get in & get out.....
in other words, get my bargain
books, buy enough to fulfill
my commitment, then quit the
club.
That way I don't get stuck with books
I don't want, paying much more with
shipping.
Other than Crafter's Choice, I buy most
of my craft books from Amazon.com with free shipping for over $25 of books.

Even getting the first few books at a bargain wasn't worth
it to me. I actually ended up seeing those books on the
very cheap not long afterwards. And then you're on their
mailing list...you just can't get rid of them!

I joined it years ago, Stella, and would not join it again. THere were
months and months when there was nothing I wanted from them. And I could
often get the books elsewhere cheaper. Just my opinion, though. Maybe other
people had a better experience.

I find the craft book clubs to be a real bother. I agree, the best is
to get in and get out. After I select my free books - there really
aren't many others that I want.

What works well for me is the library. There are some GREAT pattern
books that range from brand new to quite old.

Good health to all -
