NEW YORK (Reuters) - Looking for a New Year's Eve date? Check under

fiction at your local bookstore.

According to a survey of 1,003 New

Yorkers aged 25 to 35 released by American Express on Wednesday, the bookstore chain Barnes & Noble has the best

singles scene in the city.

Barnes & Noble spokeswoman Mary Ellen

Keating said she was not surprised.

"We've actually had requests

from people who have met in our stores ... asking if they could be married in our stores," she said. The chain has

hosted a number of weddings, she added.

Among the survey's other

findings: 42 percent of those polled said they thought the best way to ring in the New Year was "at home, enjoying a

quiet evening for two."
