**THE FIRST LINE TAKES THE WIN(E)**
Welcome to our 3rd annual Holiday meetup of Read Between the Wines!
Game synopsis:
It’s a “dirty santa” style game – with books! Everyone comes with a book, and everyone leaves with a book.
What you need to bring:
1 book in new or gently used condition – select a book that you have previously read, loved, and recommend to your fellow book club ladies. Write the first line of the book on a piece of paper. Wrap the book in holiday wrapping, then tape the paper with the first line on the outside of the wrapping.
How to play:
One at a time in a randomly drawn sequence, attendees will browse the wrapped books and either select one from the table based on the first line or steal a previously unwrapped book.
•If your book has just been stolen from you, you can pick another from the table or steal another unwrapped book (not the one that was just stolen from you!)
•Each book can only be stolen 3 times. After 3 steals, it is considered “locked” (duplicate copies of the same book do not count – if there are 2 copies of the same book, EACH copy can be stolen up to 3 times)
•When it is the last person’s turn, we enter the final round. All previously “locked” books become unlocked in this round. The last person can take the last book from the table or steal any previously unwrapped book. In this round, each book can only be stolen once before it is locked again (as above, duplicate copies do not count).
