About Us
The QC's Original Blind Date with a Book
The Macabre Librarian is a Quad Cities-based pop-up bookshop & online store that popularized Blind Dates with a Book in the QC in 2022. We aim to connect locals more deeply to their reading lives; encourage book-related self care; and heighten consciousness about the world of bookselling. In addition to doing pop-ups, we partner with local businesses such as The Atlas Collective, Rescued, Skeleton Key Art & Antiques, Coffee Apothecary, & Anthology for Books to bring curated books, blind dates with a book, and book crafts to their stores.
