Title: Dash & Lily's Book of Dares Authors: Rachel Cohn and David Levithan Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers (Oct. 26, 2010) |
You're in your favorite bookstore, scanning the shelves. You get to the section where a favorite author's books reside, and there, nestled in comfortably between the incredibly familiar spines, sits a red notebook.
What do you do?
The choice, I think, is obvious:
You take down the red notebook and open it.
And then you do whatever it tells you to do.*

I don't have much to say about this, other than that it was adorable and very clever. I'm not really sure why I enjoyed this so much; it's hard to pinpoint one thing. Maybe it was the whole idea of the notebook. Maybe it's that I love scavenger hunts, and that's what this reminded me of. Maybe it was the awesome cover. Or maybe it was the idea of winter in the city. No matter what it was, I definitely suggest it.

Whoa, this sounds great. I love, love, love scavenger hunts in books and it would make my entire life if that ever happened to me in a bookstore, so I'm definitely going to read this.
