SUMMARY:Nicholas Carlson reads from his debut book Marissa Mayer and the Fight to Save Yahoo!
DESCRIPTION:When Yahoo hired star Google executive Marissa Mayer to be its CEO in 2012 employees rejoiced. They put posters on the walls throughout Yahoo’s California’s headquarters. On them\, there was Mayer’s face and one word: HOPE. But just more than a year later–on November 4\, 2013–Mayer sat in front those same employees in a huge cafeteria on Yahoo’s campus and took the beating of her life. Her hair wet\, and her tone defensive\, Mayer read and answered a series of employee-posed questions challenging the basic elements of her plan. There was anger in the room – and behind it\, a question: Was Mayer actually going to be able to do this thing? Nicholas Carlson’s fast-paced narrative is the inside story of how Yahoo got into such awful shape in the first place\, Mayer’s controversial rise at Google\, and her desperate fight to save an Internet icon. \nNicholas Carlson is Business Insider’s chief correspondent. His investigative reporting re-wrote the histories of Facebook\, Twitter\, and Groupon. His coverage of Yahoo won Digiday’s award for “Best Editorial Achievement” of the year. Carlson is a frequent guest on CNBC and contributes to the Bloomberg biography series\, Game Changers.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of In Love in New York with authors Caitlin Leffel and Jacob Lehman
DESCRIPTION:New York is a city for lovers: In Love in New York guides the reader to the most romantic sights and destinations the city has to offer. Whether you want to watch the sun rise over the East River like Woody and Diane or enjoy a Cary Grant/Deborah Kerr moment at the top of the Empire State Building\, there is no greater city than New York for couples in love. The book begins with “first impressions\,” the iconic New York sights that never fail to dazzle: the skyline (and the best places to view it)\, the most beautiful blocks and neighborhoods\, the famous views (rooftops\, bridges\, riverside parks). Chapters follow on great date ideas\, including destination museums and unusual “dinner-and-a-movie/theater” combinations. For readers ready to commit\, the authors detail the best proposal spots; where to go ring shopping; the coolest places to register for gifts; and information about the legal requirements for marrying in the city (gay and straight)\, including a rundown on the classic City Hall wedding—with the best places to buy flowers and to celebrate afterwards\, naturally. There are also ideas for planning honeymoons and anniversaries. Throughout\, sidebars offer romantic options such as wonderful bars with fireplaces\, the prettiest park benches\, great New York literary and film affairs to inspire your visit\, and romantic day trips within and near the five boroughs. From champagne on the Peninsula rooftop in midtown to ice skating in Bryant Park\, In Love in New York is the perfect gift for any couple dreaming of experiencing the romance of New York.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom with Lynda Blackmon Lowery\, Elspeth Leacock\, and Susan Buckley
DESCRIPTION:As the youngest marcher in the 1965 voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery\, Alabama\, Lynda Blackmon Lowery proved that young adults can be heroes. Jailed eleven times before her fifteenth birthday\, Lowery fought alongside Martin Luther King\, Jr. for the rights of African-Americans. In this memoir\, she shows today’s young readers what it means to fight nonviolently (even when the police are using violence\, as in the Bloody Sunday protest) and how it felt to be part of changing American history. \nStraightforward and inspiring\, this beautifully illustrated memoir brings readers into the middle of the Civil Rights Movement\, complementing Common Core classroom learning and bringing history alive for young readers. \n

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Michael Callahan reads from his debut Searching for Grace Kelly
DESCRIPTION:BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER\, THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.   \nWE STILL HAVE THE BOOK! \n \nFor a small-town girl with big-city dreams\, there is no address more glamorous than New York’s Barbizon Hotel. Laura\, a patrician beauty from Smith\, arrives to work at Mademoiselle for the summer. Her hopelessly romantic roommate\, Dolly\, comes from a working-class upstate town to attend secretarial school. Vivian\, a brash British bombshell with a disregard for the hotel’s rules\, rounds out the trio of friends. Together\, the girls embark on a journey of discovery that will take them from the penthouse apartments of Park Avenue to the Beat scene of Greenwich Village to Atlantic City’s Steel Pier — and into the arms of very different men who will alter their lives forever.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of The Crazy Thing with Carl Lehmann-Haupt
DESCRIPTION:The Crazy Thing tries to respond to this endless question. It is a love story entwined with a philosophic quest. Beginning from the question about dying it goes on to explore some ways in which it might be possible to begin over again\, and  perhaps still learn how to live ‘somewhere near the end.’ The Crazy Thing is a memoir with three themes: It tells the story of the author’s long love affair with the poet\, Celestine Frost; the drama of his enigmatic calling as an artist\, writer and thinker; and his lifelong search for the incalculable limits of the self. The Crazy Thing is a work in progress\, whose outcome is yet to be known. This first small volume will be followed by six more. It contains an invitation to the reader to post their questions\, comments and refutations regarding the book’s conclusions on a website — thecrazything.net. The author will take into account the most pertinent of those challenges to his understanding as he composes the subsequent installments. In the end\, the book will be a work of collaboration between the author and the community it creates. \n  \n
