First Thursday Fiction Book Goup

Anne Dunne has gone missing and her husband is the primary suspect. This is the novel’s central premise, but things aren’t always what they appear. Through Anne’s diary entries and Nick’s first-hand account, the reader navigates the twist and turns of their relationship and a police investigation.

Gone Girl fever has swept the nation. This novel, soon to be film, is the featured read for the First Thursday Fiction Book Group. Join in the discussion this Thursday, December 12, at 10 am in the Theatre Level meeting rooms. For any questions, please call 444-7820.

A Roger Day Christmas

It may be a no-no to kiss a rhino, but it is definitely a YES-YES to celebrate the holidays with Roger Day at the Hoover Public Library!  We'll be decking the halls with mosquito burritos at A Roger Day Christmas on Tuesday, December 17, 2013.  Roger is SO POPULAR that we are having two events in The Library Theatre.  One is at 10:30 a.m., and the other is at 6:30 p.m.  After the show, we'll serve cookies and punch, and everyone will have a chance to visit another special guest -- Santa Claus!

IMPORTANT REMINDER!
We have to follow strict seating guidelines in The Library Theatre, per the fire code.  If you came to any of our summer reading shows, you are already aware of these rules.  But if you've only recently discovered us . . .
1. Program attendance is limited to the number of seats we have in The Library Theatre.
2. All seats are available on a first come, first served basis.
3. We will not be able to save seats.  All members of your party must be there in order to be seated together.
