🗓️ Friday, March 6
🕒  6:30-8:00 PM
📍 The Viridian Bookshop
💰 $10 + cost of book & basket

An evening of intrigue, imagination, and beautifully wrapped surprises.

Join us for a bookish gathering where stories stay hidden, baskets steal the spotlight, and the suspense lasts until the very last unwrapping.

📚 How It Works

1. Choose Your Book
Select a book you love — one you’d recommend wholeheartedly — and keep the title secret.

2. Build a Themed Basket
Wrap the book so no one can peek.
Create a themed basket inspired by its mood, setting, characters, or vibes.

💡 Budget: $50 total (including the book)

3. The Big Reveal (Without the Reveal)
At the event, present your basket and share why you chose the items — but don’t give away the title or author. The mystery is half the fun.

4. The Swap Begins
Everyone draws a number.

  • #1 picks first.

  • Baskets can be “stolen” up to three times.

  • The final person gets the honor of unwrapping their book first!

Expect laughter, playful strategy, and just a little dramatic tension.


✨ What to Expect

  • Thoughtfully curated mystery baskets

  • Lively, low-pressure social fun

  • A room full of fellow book lovers

  • Light snacks provided

  • The thrill of discovering a story you didn’t see coming


Who It’s For

  • Avid readers and casual book lovers alike

  • Anyone who loves gifting as much as receiving

  • Friends looking for a cozy, interactive night out

No need to be a literary expert — just bring a book you’d be excited for someone else to unwrap.


Come for the Mystery. Leave with a Story.

Spots are limited to keep the experience intimate and fun.
