I think most of us can agree that the fantasy world is better than reality in... most occasions. That's why so many people enjoy reading books! Especially when it comes to romance - they always seem to get it right on paper.

Whether you're an avid book reader or you're wanting to get into the hobby, this event at the Duncan Public Library adds some excitement and mystery to the process of finding your perfect match.

What Is "Blind Date With A Book?"

It's actually a fairly simple and exciting concept for book readers who feel like they've read it all, or they want some surprise in their life.

At the Duncan Public Library, they've wrapped several books in Valentine's Day themed wrapping paper so that readers can't tell what the book is. Instead, on the cover is a "profile picture for the book."

The profile describes the genre, year it was published, overall rating, "spice rating," a quote from the book, and some elements of interests that readers might want to have in their book.

Can "Blind Date with A Book" Help Find Me A Date?

We can't promise anything besides the fact that you could end up on a date with your favorite fantasy character in one of the books they've wrapped! But, it's always a good idea to put yourself in social situations, especially if you discover that you both share the same hobby - reading books.

Some of us aren't fans of the online dating process, and this is one of the ways you can take a risk and meet someone organically, without the online nonsense. That being said, not everyone might be there to look for a partner, so if you shoot your shot and they say no, just take it in stride. But you never know if you never try!
