Calling all bibliophiles, beer and cocktail lovers!

You are invited to the Blind Date with a Book Swap Beer at the Phoenix. Grab your pre-loved favorite (or not-so-favorite) books and bring them to the swap on Thursday, July 16 at 6 pm! Books can be dropped off between 3 pm and 6 pm with the official swap starting at 6:30 pm.

We will have a few activities while you wait, including puzzles, word art, and there are always board games!

How can you participate:

Gather up books you think others might be interested in. Wrap each book to hide the cover and title, and add a label with a few descriptive words and clues about the book. Feel free to include bookmarks, tea bags or other items hidden in your wrapping, even a note to the new owner!

Information should include:

Genre: mystery, romance, sci-fi, DIY, cookbooks, etc…

Descriptive Words: A few short phrases like time-warp,thrilling, heartwarming, funny, fast-paced and touching. Get creative with the descriptions to make them fun and engaging without revealing any spoilers.

Target Audience: Think age or interests
and a Smut Rating: O=No Smut at all, X- a little spice, XX -Spicy, XXX-Extra Spicy.

Need wrapping paper or a label? We’ll have some extra available, first come-first served.

How does the swap work? For every book you drop off, you will receive a raffle ticket. At 3 pm we’ll start pulling raffle tickets so the swap can begin. When your ticket is called you can pick out your book.

Can you bring more than one book? Absolutely! You get one ticket for every book you drop off.
