#BlindDateWithaBook
blurb

Blind Date | R. L. Stine
post image

I was thinking of hosting a #BlindDateWithaBook event in February - any interest?

Here‘s how it works. First - it‘s NOT A SWAP. More like the Trapped in a Spooky House game. You share a TBR list, and your match chooses 5 books from that list for you to pick from. Your match does NOT share the titles, but just some key facts, like genre, themes, etc. You choose your book “blind” and then your match reveals the title, and you read it. Who‘s in?

CSeydel If there‘s enough interest I‘ll make a Google sign up form 4d
Karisimo Interested! 3d
Bookworm54 I would be interested :) 3d

BethM The his sounds fun! I‘m too much of a mood reader, but great idea! 3d
Faranae I like this idea, but my TBR is over 1000 books, I'm not sure what someone would do with that. 😂 3h
CSeydel @Faranae I feel you! If you really want to join, you have a couple of options. You can just let them choose from the list of 1000+ and see how it goes. Or you can make a list with 100 or so that you‘re more interested in reading right now, and share that link. 3h

I went to a local Holiday market today and one of the vendors was selling #BlindDateWithABook. I'm not going to open the one I got until Christmas.

I‘ve always wanted to do one of these and what better way than with a banned book for banned book week. #bannedbook #blinddatewithabook

This is a very strange Japanese book again. About a shy girl, hired by a museum to talk Latin to an old statue of Venus on days the museum is closed. It‘s a book about art and raincoats, loneliness and living in Japan, and, between the lines, child abuse. It‘s funny and challenging. Thanks for the gift, @TrishB 💕
