Weekends at The Book Escape just got more interesting! Starting
May 11, The Book Escape began a new weekend contest: $20 hidden in a book
somewhere in the store!
The first announcement was made on the Facebook page,
facebook.com/TheBookEscape with a clue: “There is a hunter among us.” Local
firefighter Ron Howard knew that Stephen Hunter, a nationally respected author
and critic, lived in Federal Hill, so he popped across the street and found the
prize in a copy of Master Sniper.
The Book Escape hopes to continue the contest every weekend,
and will continue to announce the clues and winners on their Facebook and
Twitter. The usual prize will be $20, but some weekends, it might be higher!
“We will try to pick
out books and provide clues that might help expand one's knowledge, or at least
provide some interesting trivia, on reading and literature,” said Andrew
Stonebarger, owner of The Book Escape.
So head on down to
The Book Escape on Saturdays for a chance to learn about literature and maybe
find some literary treasure of your own!
