Our switch to Powell's Books

(article, Kim Carlson)
Way back in January, when we launched Culinate, we knew that we'd be publishing book reviews and needed a retail bookselling partner. So we partnered with Amazon — an easy choice, because Amazon's online system was turnkey: created for linking and buying. 

But our recent decision to switch to [%powellsSectionLink "Powell's" newpage=true] for book sales was also easy: Powell’s is not only our premier local bookseller, it's the largest independent bookstore in the country. And these days the Powell's website has more functionality than ever.

We also like the fact that Powell's specializes in one thing: books. 

If you visit the Rose City, the downtown City of Books is a must-see. It's part of what makes Portland Portland. 

Finally, watch this weekend for a promotion on Culinate that Powell's is helping to sponsor. They, we, and others are going to give you a fun chance to win big. Stay tuned!
