I loved reading while growing up, so seeing the titles I enjoyed still being cherished is quite nostalgic. Being able to bring these favourite titles into Costco and allow the next generation of members to enjoy them comes with a lot of satisfaction.
After more than a decade of hard work, we’ ve built great relationships with our suppliers to ensure we get a thorough list of what’ s new, hot and trending. In-warehouse, you’ ll find a mix of both lifelong favourites and the most-talkedabout and anticipated titles being turned into TV series.
My best-selling category is kids’ box sets because we show such exceptional value, but there’ s plenty on offer for the adults as well. Nobody likes to wait for the next book so, through our careful selection of titles, we can offer our members a complete experience with the best value on those sets. Here are some of my favourites right now.
LITERATURE LOVERS
Canterbury Classics Leatherbound Assorted Books( Item 704693) are timeless novels that are beautifully designed with stunning attention to detail and ribbon bookmarks. They’ re perfect for collectors and literature lovers of all ages and make great gifts.
This seven-volume set includes short stories, novels, plays and poems from authors like F. Scott Fitzgerald, Jane Austen, Lewis Carroll, the Bronte Sisters, H. P. Lovecraft, the Brothers Grimm and Ernest Hemingway that appeal to all readers and would make a good addition to any library.
There is a certain luxury in turning the pages on a leatherbound book while all snuggled up in your favourite chair and these stories, which have endured the test of time, are the perfect choice. I have the collection myself.
TALES WITH A TWIST
The Disney Twisted Tales Enchanted Collection( Item 114114) is a series written by various authors and each one is based on a different Disney movie, but with a difference. Instead of following the classic plotline, each book turns the fairytale on its head.
