How cute is this blind date with a book display? The store includes bookmarks and stickers with each wrapped book. Adorable!

I was tempted by one of these yesterday - have you ever jumped in blind?

AmyG I haven‘t because I have and read so many books...I don‘t want to buy something I already own or have read. 2y
5feet.of.fury @AmyG I have that same apprehension. However unlikely bc of the amount of books in the world 2y
melissajayne @AmyG same here 2y

Mitch @AmyG I‘ve not either. Scared to be disappointed! 2y
julieclair I haven't, but I'm always tempted. 2y
thegreensofa Neither have I. But that middle top one would have definitely went home with me! 😯 2y
Gissy Yes, but I have to confess that I play with the words in google to check if I can guess the book. It‘s that in the past I had the book already. So it is similar to a blind date😜 2y

Went for a lovely long walk around a stately home near us ( National Trust) and saw that there was a little second hand bookshop in the stone porters lodge. I might be visiting there again!

squirrelbrain I love the NT bookshops, but never been at Xmas…. Might have to plan a trip to one soon; puppy is allowed out in a week. 🤔 3y
Mitch @squirrelbrain you have a puppy!!!!! Talk to me Helen! 3y
squirrelbrain Yes, we got him last Friday…! He‘s a black lab called Henry. ❤️ If you look back a few posts there‘s a pic or two of him… 3y
Mitch @squirrelbrain wow - he‘s a stunner! Congratulations! 🎉 3y

Another successful blind date! Though it wasn‘t that much of a mystery given the description. Got Four plays by Aristophanes!

Went to Barnes & Noble and was pleasantly surprised by a display of “blind date with a book” so I just couldn‘t resist. Wasn‘t disappointed, I got Solaris by Stanislaw Lem. This is such a fun idea!

GypsyKat Awe love that! 3y
Faibka @GypsyKat yes! It‘s a really cool idea, I was actually excited to see what book I was going to get, first time I‘ve ever bought an unknown book 3y
GypsyKat @Faibka I‘ve never done that but I definitely would! So much fun! 3y

Care to make a guess? I'll open it tomorrow.

I picked this up from B&N last week and have been mildly mulling it over, trying to see if I guess which book is inside. I truly don't know and refuse to search the ISBN because that's no fun. It sounds right up my alley!
*Oxford University
*1985
*...meets Clueless
*Murder Mystery

Soubhiville I have no idea, but I love seeing these blind dates in stores and libraries! 4y
JackOBotts Can‘t wait to hear the reveal! Agatha Christie meets Clueless! 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @Soubhiville Me too! I'm always afraid I already have the book, but it sounded so interesting I decided to "swipe right". 4y

I prolonged the gratifying experience of opening my “Blind Date With a Book” choice so I could take a picture to post.

I wonder if anyone can guess, based on the first line and genre noted on the package. The first one is general fiction and begins with, “I don‘t have good memories of growing up. Seems like I knew a lot of ugly stuff when I shouldn‘t.” The other one is a mystery and the first line is, “We were talking about the kidnapped baby.”

abookishbutterfly I‘ll show you what‘s inside later! 5y
AmyG Before we were Yours? This line sounds familiar. 5y
abookishbutterfly @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @AmyG I just posted the reveal picture! 5y

My boyfriend and I accidentally stumbled upon a secondhand bookstore today. Two hours and some damage to both of our wallets later, I walked away with a few treasures, including this “blind date” with a book. Here‘s to a New Year, new adventures, and new books!

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks This looks fun!!! Just wondering if it‘s ok to feature you as a new litten tomorrow? ☺️ 7y

Betty I'm so curious!! What's the book? Or is it actually titled Blind Date? Welcome to Litsy! 7y
lizzlehuff @Betty it ended up being The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo! Oddly enough, I never got around to reading that series 7y
Betty Great that you've never read it 7y
Andrew65 @Betty I wondered the same thing! 😂 7y
vkois88 The only problem I have with Blind Date books is that unsuspecting people aren't aware of any triggers :/ other than that, I love the idea of being introduced to books you may not have tried otherwise 7y
Smangela 😍 I‘m jealous that your boyfriend enjoys 2 hrs in a bookstore too! My hubby can do a little while but he‘d never make it 2 hrs haha 😂 7y
lizzlehuff @Smangela He normally wouldn‘t last that long either, but this bookstore had video games too. Something for both of us 😂 7y
tpixie @lizzlehuff I did like that series. Different but intriguing. And the Blind Date clues were awesome!! 7y
lizzlehuff @tpixie I‘m a psychology major, so “psychological drama” drew me in! Definitely looking forward to reading it soon! 7y

@Laalaleighh won a date with this beauty I fell in love with a few years ago. Does anyone else have a guess as to what it might be? Add a spoiler tag so she can still be surprised!

We're doing a Blind Date with a Book display at work for Valentine's Day! These books are recommended based on what books are similar, and customers will choose only on that information. One of my picks has comparisons to The Book Thief, Gone Girl, and We Were Liars. Any guesses as to what it is?
