@macabrelibrarian started as an online store in 2018 and brought "blind date with book" in pop-up form to the QC area in 2022. She is constantly looking for ways to encourage people to read dangerously. Check out her selection of "Blind Dates with a Book" which would make a great gift for yourself or your favorite bookworm. One perk is that they are already wrapped and would make a fun unveiling activity with friends and family!
