Two white-wrapped books are held in a car. One, labeled 'my pick,' has 'Romance' clues about second chances and a service dog. The other, 'matelyn's pick,' describes a 'YA Fantasy' with wild magic and a teen girl fighting evil.
A person holds the book 'THE COMING STORM' by Regina M. Hansen, which was 'matelyn's pick.' The cover depicts a woman playing a violin amidst stormy waves, with a Goodreads rating of 3.81/5 visible.

Did you know you can go on a blind date with a book? 📚💌 I found @matchmakermarietta at Summer Shade fest and instantly fell in love with the concept. Each book is wrapped up with a little teaser of the plot + genre so you get the vibe—but not the title. Such a fun way to discover something new
