MARCH PICK
Hungerstone - Paperback by Kat Dunn
A thrilling and seductive sapphic romance about lust and ambition set in the nineteenth century.
A repressed Victorian woman comes to delight in her own hungers when she and her husband take in a mysterious woman named Carmilla, who seems to most fully come to life at night.
Ten years into their marriage, Lenore's relationship with her husband Henry has soured, and no child has arrived to fill the distance between them. Lenore's frustration grows when Henry's ambitions, both work and societal, take them out of London and into the countryside, to the imposing Nethershaw manor, where he is planning to host a hunt. Lenore keeps a terrible secret from the last time her husband hunted, and though they never speak of it, it haunts their marriage to this day.
A carriage accident near their home soon brings the mysterious Carmilla into Lenore's life. Carmilla, who is weak and pale during the day but vibrant at night; Carmilla who will not eat meals with the family; Carmilla who stirs up a hunger deep within Lenore.
Torn between regaining her husband's affection and the desire Carmilla's presence awakens in her, Lenore begins to unravel her past. Her search leads her to uncover a darkness in her household that's set on destroying her.
Hungerstone is a mesmerizing reclamation of the lesbian vampire trope, set against the backdrop of the voracious appetite of the Industrial Revolution.
Joining is easy. Just subscribe above, pick your favorite host or club, and choose a plan that fits your rhythm — monthly or quarterly. Every plan includes exclusive member perks and bits of joy delivered in every box.
Allstora Tokens are your monthly key to choice. They let you decide what lands on your doorstep: the selection, another club’s pick, or something fun from The Pride Shop. Tokens give you the freedom to shape your reading life each month.
On the 15th of your renewal month, tokens are added to your account. You’ll have 72 hours to make your selection before orders lock. We’ll send a reminder when it’s time to choose. Nothing ships until you make your selection.
If life gets busy, we’ll still do our best to rush your book if we have stock available! Rush orders cost one token.
Totally fine. Your tokens roll forward for up to 12 months. You can stockpile them like a dragon hoarding queer literature, then spend them when the next story (or tote bag) calls your name.
Books ship once you redeem your tokens for that month’s selection. Orders go out during the last week of the month and usually arrive the first week of the next month. If you redeem late, we’ll do our best to get it to you quickly.

Each club’s upcoming title is announced on the 15th of the prior month. You can preview the pick and, if it’s not your vibe, simply hold your tokens (for up to a year) to use on another title or item instead.
No drama. Skip it! Your tokens will patiently wait in your account (for up to a year) until a book, merch item, or moment speaks to you.
Yep! You can cancel anytime after your first renewal. No hoops, no heartbreak.
