For the last several years, I’ve done a “Blind Date with a Book” display at my library. It surprises and delights patrons, who can select a wrapped book with nothing but a brief description written in the format of a personal ad to hint at the contents.
Just in case your local library or bookstore hasn’t jumped on the trend, I thought it would be fun to give Book Riot readers the opportunity to go on a blind date with a book: just click on the personal ad that most intrigues you, use that 1-click checkout, open a bottle of wine, and you’re all set for your very own Valentine’s date.
