Bookstores and bars have a lot in common — diversity, good conversation and enough stimulation to leave you full and fatigued. So if pub crawls succeed in introducing folks to new places to get hammered, why not organize a similar event for some of the city's best book nooks? Enter the West Philadelphia Book Crawl, a two-hour adventure including stops at Bindlestiff Books, The Last Word and A House of Our Own before winding up at Penn Book Center. Like a night of barhopping, the crawl is as much about the places you'll visit as book-lovers you'll meet along the way. Give your iPad a rest and take part in what organizer Matt Jakubowski calls the "face-to-face part of book culture: shaking hands, exchanging books, laughing and arguing."
