Blind Date With A Book
A signed book, wrapped and sent blind, with a card rating its spice and darkness. Pick a card, roll the d20, or let Maelana match one to you.
Three ways to find your blind date
For you or for someone else. Every way ends the same: a signed book, wrapped and sent blind, with a card that says exactly what the reader is in for.
Pick your card
How it works: choose a price, then hover over or tap any card to read it full size: the hook, genre, spice, darkness and what it’s rated for. Add one or as many as you like. No questions, just checkout.
$25 blind dates: One signed book: a standalone or the first book in a series. The title stays a secret until it arrives.
$40 blind dates: More than one signed book, or one of Maelana’s longer reads. The titles stay a secret until they arrive.
Let Maelana match you
How it works: tell us what you love, your favorite books and authors, and your hard no’s. In a few seconds you’ll see two blind dates that fit at each price, and why. Choose one and it goes in your cart, and Maelana gets your answers so she can double-check the pick. Buying for more than one person? Do a quick questionnaire for each.
Roll the d20
How it works: pick $25 or $40, then roll. Every blind date owns a set of numbers (listed below), and whatever you roll goes straight into your cart. Don’t love the result? Remove it and roll again.
Roll to see which blind date fate picks for you.

Six dates don’t split evenly across 20 sides, so 19 and 20 mean roll again. That keeps it fair: every $40 date has the same 1-in-6 chance.
