Overview

HISA is bringing a 'Blind Date with a Book' experience to NWH! Forget the flashy covers, celebrity endorsements, and best-seller stickers -we’re going back to basics. This event is all about the magic of the story itself.

Whether you're looking for a heart-pounding thriller, a sweeping romance, or a thought-provoking non-fiction read, we’ve hand-picked a selection of books just waiting to be discovered. The catch? You won't know what you've picked until you get it home!

 

How It Works

  1. Find the Books: Head over to the table next to the rReception Desk at Thurso or find them around campus at Stornoway.

  2. Read the Hints: Each book is completely wrapped in brown paper. Instead of a cover, you’ll find brief descriptions and cryptic keywords to give you a taste of what’s inside.

  3. Take Your Pick: Choose the one that piques your curiosity the most.

  4. The Big Reveal: Take the book home, get cozy, and unwrap your book to reveal your next favorite read!

 

A low-pressure way to step outside your reading comfort zone and find a hidden gem. Who knows what book you may uncover?
