LINCOLN SQUARE — Remember life pre-Tinder? The Book Cellar is putting the "blind" back into blind date as it plays Cupid for readers.

For Valentine's Day, the shop, 4736 N. Lincoln Ave., has wrapped a number of titles in plain brown paper and is daring customers to take a chance based on nothing more than a book's price and a vague description of its contents.

"Need a whale of tale? Yes, that one. Except not that one...."

"Historical fiction fans, pick me!"

Who knows, you might even find a true romance.
