The original special edition book club, for readers who believe books are worth collecting.

£24.99 per month, plus postage · Six-month membership · Two opt-outs during each six-month period

For more than twenty years, PREM1ER members have trusted Goldsboro Books to discover exceptional books before everyone else.

PREM1ER is our original and flagship membership: a club founded on the belief that a great book should be treasured as well as read.

Every month, we choose one outstanding novel and create an exclusive signed and numbered Goldsboro first edition for our members. Each edition is produced with beautiful bespoke features and designed to become part of a collection you will value for years to come.

Over the past two decades, PREM1ER has championed remarkable books and writers at the very beginning of their journeys. That history matters—but so does what comes next. Every new selection carries the possibility of becoming a much-loved novel, a modern collectable or the beginning of an extraordinary writing career.

AS A PREM1ER MEMBER, YOU’LL RECEIVE:

• A carefully chosen signed and numbered Goldsboro first edition every month
• An exclusive edition with bespoke collectable features
• A consistent personal limitation number wherever availability allows
• A monthly note from Goldsboro explaining why we chose the book
• Exclusive author interviews and behind-the-scenes content
• Priority access to selected Goldsboro special editions before general release
• Advance notice of selected Goldsboro events, signings and festivals
• 15% off other Goldsboro Books purchases while you remain a member

PREM1ER is more than a monthly book. It is an invitation to discover, collect and become part of the continuing Goldsboro story.

Join PREM1ER and own the books everyone else will wish they had discovered first.

    Why Become a Premier Member

    PREM1ER is the original signed first-edition
    membership.

    For more than 20 years, our members have trusted Goldsboro Books to introduce them to remarkable writers, future bestsellers and books with the potential to become sought-after editions.

    That trust is at the heart of PREM1ER. Every monthly choice is made with care and conviction. We look first for an exceptional story, then for originality, new talent and long-term collectability. We work closely with publishers and authors to create an edition unavailable anywhere else, often signed in person at our Cecil Court bookshop.

    You aren’t simply receiving a beautiful book each month. You are building a collection with Goldsboro and holding a place within our longest-established membership.

    Amazing service even from a distance of half way across the country. They pack books to survive a nuclear blast and so I am never worried about anything arriving damaged!

  • Blockquote

    Best bookstore I have ever encountered. Books sent are packaged as if they are rare china. I have ordered about 50 books from them and even though they are sent oversees, none have ever been damaged. Customer service is amazing, and prices are extraordinarily fair. I'd give ten stars if I was able."
