How Our Events Work

BookPeople is proud to host over 300 events every year. Our events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise stated.

To get a book signed at one of our events, a copy of the event book must be purchased from BookPeople. By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business, but you are also showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople. Think of it this way: you wouldn't bring your own beer to a bar, would you?

For events where we anticipate large crowds, wristbands may be required in order to join the signing line. Occasionally we may also ticket events. In both cases, information as to when wristbands/tickets are available will be found on that event's specific page on our website. 

Elizabeth McCracken

03/30/2010 7:00 pm

This is the happiest story in the world with the saddest ending,"
writes Elizabeth McCracken in her powerful, inspiring memoir. A
prize-winning, successful novelist in her 30s, McCracken was happy to be an
itinerant writer and self-proclaimed spinster. But suddenly she fell in
love, got married, and two years ago was living in a remote part of France,
working on her novel, and waiting for the birth of her first child. This
book is about what happened next. In her ninth month of pregnancy, she
learned that her baby boy had died. How do you deal with and recover from
this kind of loss? Of course you don't--but you do go on. This sad yet
joyful memoir is truly beautifully written. Tonight at 7PM.
