Blind date with a book
No cover, no title, no blurb — just three hints on the paper and a book I've read and loved, matched to the tropes and vibes you tell me about.
How it works
Take the two-minute quiz or leave a note at checkout with your favourite tropes, the genres you love and anything you'd rather avoid. I match a book from my reviewed shelf, wrap it blind and post it.
What's in the parcel
One handpicked book, three hints written on the wrapping, a handwritten note from me (and a paw print from Bella), a bookmark and a small treat.
Price
€17.99 for a pre-loved copy in good condition, €25.99 for brand new. Add-ons available: a matched candle, an extra bookmark set, or gift wrapping for someone else.

Frequently asked questions
- What if I've already read the book?
- Tell me the titles you own in the checkout note and I'll avoid them. If one slips through anyway, message me and I'll sort you out.
- Are the books new or second-hand?
- Your choice. €17.99 gets a pre-loved copy in good condition from my own collection; €25.99 gets a brand-new one.
- How do you choose the book?
- From my quiz answers or your note, and only from books I've read and reviewed on this site. Nothing goes out that I haven't finished myself.
- How long does a blind date parcel take to arrive?
- It ships within five working days, then 2–3 working days within Ireland, 3–5 to the UK and 5–8 across the EU.
