? ? ACOBAB Valentine’s Social – Banter, Books, & New Bookish Friends! ? ?

Banter lovers, mark your calendars!
This February, we’re celebrating Valentine’s Day our way — with mystery books, laughs, and a whole lot of new connections. ??✨

? What’s Happening:

❤️ Blind Book SWAP – Bring a book from your own collection, wrap it up, and write a short teaser blurb on the outside (no title or author!). We’ll check them in, enjoy some banter, then draw numbers to see which mystery read you take home! (This Is the main book for the game)

➕ You can bring as many unwrapped books to swap as you want.  *Same book swap rules apply*

? Banter Hour(s) – Mingle, chat, and get those TBRs growing.

? Bookish Speed Friending – Quick 5–10 minute chats with fellow readers before rotating. I’ll have fun questions ready, but you can also use your brand-new blind book as an instant icebreaker!

? Blind Swap Guideline Rules:
 • Must be in good condition (used or new is fine!)
 • Wrap in paper or decorative wrap so it’s a surprise
 • Write a short, intriguing blurb: “Slow-burn romance with a dangerous secret” or “Epic fantasy with found family and a twist you won’t see coming”

Come for the books, stay for the banter, and leave with new friends (and maybe your next favorite read!). ??
