In February a dozen intrepid library visitors went on a blind date with a book. Choosing a book wrapped in plain brown paper and a pick-up line, readers brought the book home and got better acquainted. After reading the book, they completed a “Rate Your Date” bookmark and were entered in a drawing to win one dozen chocolate covered strawberries. The drawing was won by Andrea Lin!
Unfortunately her date, New York Then and Now, left her unimpressed.
