Spice up your life with a book subscription this Easter break.
We may not be able to expand our minds with travel this Easter, but we can still live life vicariously through a good book.
Hong Kong bookseller Bookazine is launching a book subscription service. ‘BOOKSPOKE’ hopes to champion a love of books in the territory and encourage readers to discover new authors and genres.
