🕵️♀️ Do You Believe in Love at First Sight? 🕵️♀️
Tomorrow, April 25th, for Independent Bookstore Day, we are hosting the ultimate Blind Date with a Book event! We’ve hand-picked some incredible new titles, wrapped them in mystery, and left you a few clues on the front to see if it’s a match made in literary heaven.
Because we want your "first date" to be extra special, every mystery book comes bundled with a Date Night Survival Kit:
✨ 3 Stickers (to deck out your kindle or water bottle)
🔖 A Magnetic Bookmark (so you never lose your place during the spicy or thrilling parts)
☕ A Gourmet Tea Packet (for maximum cozy vibes)
🍭 A Sucker (because you’re sweet, obviously!)
The catch? Once you pick your date, there are no trade-ins! You have to commit to the mystery. 😉
Come celebrate your local indie bookstore and find your next favorite read. Will it be a heart-thumping thriller, a swoony romance, or a magical fantasy? Only the paper knows!
📅 When: Saturday, April 25th: Starting at 9 am
📍 Where: Bookmark This Bar
See you there, book lovers! Let’s get weird and well-read. 🥂📖
