As you enter the library, you see a large desk completely covered with books and papers stacked in towering piles. Presently a bespectacled head peaks out.
"Welcome to the Great Sanctum Library! Is this your first time visiting?

"In the meantime, I could use your help here if you're willing. With everyone else so busy most of the daily tasks have fallen to me and I haven't been able to keep up!"
She gestured to a tall stack of notecards held down by what looks to be a piece of a former column.

This event runs from 06/20 until 06/26 at rollover and is open to all flights.
Every day, a patron's request will be posted. To participate, recommend a book that meets the patron's genre preferences. Non-genre preferences are there as extra information and don't need to be fulfilled.
A recommendation must include Title, Author, and Reason to be considered valid. You must explain why you think the book is a good match for the patron. "It's good" or similar low effort entries will not be eligible for prizes.
To be eligible for the daily prize, entries must be posted before rollover that day.
Everyone who participates in 5 or more days of the event will be entered into the Grand Prize drawing. Everyone entered into the drawing will be entered once.
You may only win 1 daily prize for the length of the event. Winning a daily prize does not disqualify you from winning a grand prize.
Drawings will be determined by RNG. Grand prizes may take until 7/2 to be delivered due to their nature.

What qualifies an entry as "low effort"
Any entry that was made not to participate in the event but to be eligible for prizes. Examples are copying the back of the book or simply saying "it's a good book" for your explanation.
Do I have to role play?
Nope! Do what's fun for you.
Does my book have to meet every part of the request?
Nope! A suggestion should fit the genre (or have a really good reason why not) but otherwise the information provided is there to give you options and ideas, not to box you in.
Do I need to have read the book I'm recommending?
Nope! Despite common belief, librarians don't spend their entire day reading so they often recommend books they've never read either.
How do I find books to recommend?
Each patron will include a title & author of a book they like in that genre. If you search that title on your local library's website, it will more than likely list books that are similar to it. Amazon and Goodreads can also be used in this way. Bookriot also has additional ways to find relevant books.
Can I recommend more than one book?
Absolutely! Just please keep all recommendations for the same patron in one comment. This is solely to make it easier on me to track entries.
Does the book have to be in English.
Yes, your main recommendation should in English (translated works are fine). If you want to include an extra non-English recommendation though, please feel free.
What are Stellar Recommendations?
Those are recommendations that are either already favorite books of mine or sound so intriguing I'm adding them to my personal to-read list. If selected, you might find a small gift headed your way.

Astrid pulls a request from the much-depleted pile and reads:

The request reads:

[*]Can you recommend a scary book? I tend to prefer media where the monster is hinted at or barely seen rather than fully shown, but I'm willing to try anything. I'm also okay with ambiguity whether in just the ending or if the existence of monsters is never proven beyond a doubt.
What normally gets me is a creeping sense of dread where you know something isn't right (is that a shadow or did it just move?) but don't have enough evidence to really trust in your instinct.

[*] I love cozy mysteries! There's just something about a person with a regular, normal life being pulled into a deadly mystery that hooks me every time. I especially adore series set in the same small town where you get to learn about all the regulars over multiple books. Animal companions are a plus as are any books that include recipes!
