Barnes & Noble appears to be continuing to succeed with its B&N-exclusive editions of young adult titles.聽
As we previously reported, B&N has released special editions of such popular YA books as John Green鈥檚 鈥淭he Fault in Our Stars鈥 and 鈥淎llegiant鈥 by Veronica Roth. These exclusive titles include such material as Q&As with the authors or extra material not included in the book itself.
Another exclusive edition is currently near the top of the B&N bestseller list. 鈥淭he Heir鈥 by Kiera Cass, the fourth in Cass鈥檚 鈥淪election鈥 YA series, is currently ranked at number four on the bookselling website, above books that are bestsellers on other websites such as Dana Perino's "And the Good News Is...," David Baldacci's "Memory Man," and Paula Hawkins' "The Girl on the Train." The B&N version of 鈥淭he Heir鈥 has an extra scene not included in the original book, is signed by Cass, and has new photos.聽
鈥淗eir鈥 is also selling well at competitor Amazon 鈥 it鈥檚 currently ranked at number 26 鈥 but the B&N exclusive edition seems to be selling even better. The exclusive edition program appears to be a success for the retailer.
