Book Overview
"I've left some clues for you.
If you want them, turn the page.
If you don't, put the book back on the shelf, please." 16-year-old Lily has left a red notebook full of challenges on her favorite bookstore shelf, waiting for just the right guy to come along and accept its dares. Dash, in a bad mood during the holidays, happens to be the first guy to pick up the notebook and rise to its challenges. What follows is a whirlwind romance as Dash and Lily trade dares, dreams, and desires in the notebook they pass back and forth at locations all across New York City. But can their in-person selves possibly connect as well as their notebook versions, or will their scavenger hunt end in a comic mismatch of disastrous proportions? Co-written by Rachel Cohn (GINGERBREAD) and David Levithan, co-author of WILL GRAYSON, WILL GRAYSON with John Green (THE FAULT IN OUR STARS), DASH & LILY'S BOOK OF DARES is a love story that will have readers scouring bookstore shelves, looking and longing for a love (and a red notebook) of their own.

Rated 5 starsPerfectly Humorous with a Dash of Holiday
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! I had no clue I would love it this much. The characters are likable and you find yourself rooting for them, even through their flaws. I read this in August, but I'll have to reread it in December. It's the perfect book to curl up with a blanket while snow falls. It takes place in New York during the Holidays. I'm thoroughly excited for the second one to come out!

Dash & Lily's Book of Dares Mentions in Our Blog
Dolly Parton and James Patterson’s new book, Run, Rose, Run, comes out March 7 and we’re excited to see what the beloved songstress and veteran storyteller have come up with. It got us thinking about some of our other favorite novel collaborations.
Did you know that Eoin Colfer, author of the Artemis Fowl series, also wrote book #6 in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series by Douglas Adams? Or that David Foster Wallace's editor finished writing The Pale King? True story. Turns out, there have been other handoffs and collaborations, so here are five of the best and the stories behind them.
Most of us appear to have book-related holiday traditions. And we add some reading suggestions for this Jólabókaflóð.
