Details
What is this event about:
Come join us for a unique book swap, where you’ll choose a book not by its title, but by the emotions it may evoke.Bring a book, wrapped so the cover is hidden, and write a few words about why you liked it or what feelings it left you with. Then, pick a new book based on someone else's description and discover an unexpected story.
It’s also a great opportunity to meet new people and connect with fellow book lovers :)
What to expect:
- Bring a book with the cover hidden—wrap it in paper or place it in a bag.
- Attach a small sticker with a description of the emotions the book evoked and its genre.
- Choose a book from the basket based on the description.
- Spend time chatting about book topics or your recent reads with other book fans :)
