This Valentine’s Day, why not forego the chocolates and schmaltzy cards and give a gift to yourselves? We’ve come up with four book bundles for you and your SO to enjoy and swap together. Not sure which one is for you? Stay tuned for our couple profiles from February 8-11. But act fast: we can only handle being this Valentinesy until February 15th (when all the chocolate goes on sale).Our first featured bundle is for Cozy Couples, to whom “Netflix and chill” literally means “relax and watch Netflix.” These reads feature main characters who seek escape from the confines of their day-to-day, meaning your partner and you can switch from X-Files to BoJack Horseman to our picks, no problem.First up is Christian McPherson’s The Cube People (Nightwood Editions), which follows aspiring novelist Colin trying to literally write his way out of a box – or, more specifically, a cubicle at a soul-crushing government job. This comedy/tragedy/horror is the perfect genre blend for TV junkies. In Lisa de Nikolits’ West of Wawa (Inanna Publications), Benny leaves first the tattered remains of her life in Australia, and then her shady ad agency job in Canada – opting instead to fly off through the country on a whirlwind roadtrip. Best of all: to enjoy these books, you don’t have to leave the couch! Are you part of a cozy couple? Buy our specially-priced bundle here (and use those savings toward a bandwitdh extension).
