SUMMARY:Anderson's Bookshop Educator Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Educator Book Club\n\nJoin us for our Educator Book Club! Our next in-person meeting will be held on Tuesday\, March 10th at 4:30 pm\, and we will be discussing Beth Is Dead by Katie Bernet. This will be a free event\, but we highly encourage the purchase of the monthly book from our store.  Please note that the author will not be present at this event. \n  \nMore about Beth Is Dead:   \nA New York Times\, USA TODAY\, and Indie Bestseller!\nHello Sunshine’s Inaugural Sunnie Reads Book Club Pick—Sunnie Select!\nFour starred reviews! \nBeth March’s sisters will stop at nothing to track down her killer—until they begin to suspect each other—in this “brilliantly snappy…electrifying” (Publishers Weekly\, starred review) debut thriller that’s also a bold\, contemporary reimagining of the beloved classic Little Women. \nWhen Beth March is found dead in the woods on New Year’s Day\, her sisters vow to uncover her murderer. \nSuspects abound. There’s the neighbor who has feelings for not one but two of the girls. Meg’s manipulative best friend. Amy’s flirtatious mentor. And Beth’s lionhearted first love. But it doesn’t take the surviving sisters much digging to uncover motives each one of the March girls had for doing the unthinkable. \nJo\, an aspiring author with a huge following on social media\, would do anything to hook readers. Would she kill her sister for the story? Amy dreams of studying art in Europe\, but she’ll need money from her aunt—money that’s always been earmarked for Beth. And Meg wouldn’t dream of hurting her sister…but her boyfriend might have\, and she’ll protect him at all costs. \nDespite the growing suspicion within the family\, it’s hard to know for sure if the crime was committed by someone close to home. After all\, the March sisters were dragged into the spotlight months ago when their father published a controversial bestseller about his own daughters. Beth could have been killed by anyone. \nBeth’s perspective told in flashback unfolds next to Meg\, Jo\, and Amy’s increasingly fraught investigation as the tragedy threatens to rip the Marches apart. \nAbout the Author:\nKatie Bernet lives in Dallas\, Texas. As one of three sisters\, she’s a diehard fan of Little Women. Beth Is Dead is her debut novel.

SUMMARY:Tivoli Theatre - An Evening of Comedy Starring WGN's Very Own Mike Toomey & Ana Belaval
DESCRIPTION:AN EVENING OF COMEDY STARRING WGN’S VERY OWN\nJoin us for a night of Comedy with Chicago’s Very own Ana Belval\, Mike Toomey and Jeff Hoover! The WGN 9 Morning Team is the #1 ranked morning show in Chicagoland and most loved! Don’t Miss this special evening featuring the members of the morning crew that will leave you laughing until dawn! \n\n\nActors\n\nMike Toomey\nAna Belaval\nJeff Hoover\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOVERVIEW\n\n\n\nJoin us for a night of Comedy with Chicago’s Very own Ana Belval\, Mike Toomey and Jeff Hoover! The WGN 9 Morning Team is the #1 ranked morning show in Chicagoland and most loved! Don’t Miss this special evening featuring the members of the morning crew that will leave you laughing until dawn! ANA BELAVAL Will try most anything once as the “Around Town” reporter for Chicago’s top-rated WGN Morning News. A four-time Emmy Award winner and Puerto Rico native\, Ana previews notable attractions\, people\, activities and uncovers some of Chicago’s best-kept secrets with a dose of improv in her signature funny and fluent style. There is nothing Ana loves more than to make people laugh. She has found the humor in navigating a bilingual and bicultural life and out of that\, a love for stand-up comedy was born. You can often see her performing in Chicago with the Mikey O Comedy Show “Girl\, let me tell you” \, “La Sala”\, and “Las Boricuas of Comedy”. From hosting a Ted X Talk to emceeing charity events\, Ana enjoys making audiences of all kinds laugh and realize that sometimes your Plan B is the ticket to living the American Dream. Upon graduating from The American University in Washington\, D.C.\, her native language became her asset as a general assignment reporter and weekend anchor for Univision’s Chicago affiliate. She worked her way up to a New York-based network correspondent and substitute host for Univision’s national morning show\, “Despierta America”. In 2005 Ana joined WGN – one of few Spanish reporters to cross over to the English broadcast market. In addition to Around Town\, Ana has also worked as a substitute anchor for the Morning and Midday News as well as WGN Radio 720. A four-time Emmy award winner and six-time Emmy nominee\, she received awards for her “Living Green” and “One Tank Trips” series\, the community affairs show “Adelante Chicago\,” and her coverage of the aftermath of Hurricane Maria in her beloved Puerto Rico – an honor for which she is most proud. She was also a finalist for the Peter Lisagor award for the special story\, “anabelaval.com.” Ana has also served as the host of Chicago Stand Up Project on WTTW – a documentary-style show featuring two well-known Chicagoans who try their hand at stand-up comedy. Off camera and off-stage\, Ana enjoys spending time with her family including her husband\, Steve\, daughter Amelia\, son Alexander and frequent Skype sessions with her parents in Puerto Rico. MIKE TOOMEY An integral part of WGN Morning News (9-10am)\, Mike Toomey serves as the “Announcer” for the show. He started out doing bits on WGN Morning News in 2003. By September 2013\, Mike had become an everyday part of the show. A regular performer on WGN Morning News\, Mike has appeared in concert with such names as George Carlin\, Wayne Newton\, Crosby\, Stills & Nash\, and Reba McEntire. He has performed on numerous television programs including; HBO’s U.S. comedy Arts Festival in Aspen Colorado; MTV’s Half Hour Comedy Hour; and A&E’s Comedy on the Road. With his sharp delivery\, quick wit\, and unique style\, Mike Toomey has been a favorite at comedy clubs and special events since 1982. Mike grew up in Carol Stream. He has volunteered with Cal’s All Star Angels Foundation\, an organization that grants wishes to kids fighting childhood cancer. Mike lives with his wife and four children in the Chicagoland area. JEFF HOOVER Jeff Hoover has made a living at making people laugh. A native of St. Joseph\, Michigan\, Hoover has nestled a place for himself in Chicago Broadcasting history. A product of the determination\, and perseverance of his parents back in Michigan\, Hoover’s pathway has been one trailblazing turn after another that landed at the doorstep of number 1\, at the ol’ number 9. The Jonathan Brandmeier was a radio juggernaut\, #1 in Chicago\, and a following that was beyond the windy city. A simple phone call\, a great Jerry Lewis impression\, and Hoover was a radio star in Chicago on the “Johnny B” show. Hoover’s comedic timing\, or in some cases he might say divine intervention landed him a per diem role on the WGN Morning News and that’s where he’s been ever since. (Yes\, using that Jerry Lewis charm and comic wit) In his 20 years at WGN\, Hoover has been part of the blood that pumps the heart of the WGN Morning News\, from his “Brad The Robot\,” to the ever-famous Wink Winkle\, Hoover is the embodiment of the WGN. His brand of weird\, goofy\, and leave-it-all-out-on-the-table kind of personality is why so many appreciate him. It feels like you know Hoover\, he’s just that kind of guy.

Our next meeting will be held on Thursday\, March 12th at 7:00 pm\, and we will be discussing A Little Buzzed. This will be a free event\, but we highly encourage the purchase of the monthly book from our store. \nPlease note that the author will not be in attendance at this event! This conversation will be moderated by Anderson’s bookseller Sheila. \n  \nMore about A Little Buzzed:   \nIf she builds it\, they will come. \nA sex toy engineer with one big secret finally meets her match\, and together they’ll put their own products to the test in this steamy romantic comedy. \nScout Porter is screwed. Not literally\, of course. Literally\, she’s a twenty-six-year-old virgin\, thanks to a relationship so disastrous she swore off love and sex for good. Metaphorically\, she’s screwed because the entire office of BuzzCorp\, the sex toy start-up where she’s head engineer\, just found out. Scout needs her team to stay focused on their upcoming launch\, not her lack of a sex life\, so she finds the simplest solution: lose her V-card—and fast—then get back to business as usual. \nEnter Hudson Bailey\, the nerdy and charming software developer hired to build the app for Scout’s latest creation. The only problem is\, he’s as inexperienced with sex toys as she is with sex. Fortunately\, he’s all too eager to learn\, and they agree that one very educational\, totally professional hook-up will solve both of their problems. All for research\, obviously. \nBut their little experiment yields unexpected results—chemistry so off the charts Scout starts to think she might actually want more than just a one-time fling. When their budding relationship is threatened by the return of Scout’s notorious ex\, both Scout and Hudson will have to decide if they’ve reached their climax as a couple\, or if they’re willing to risk everything for a chance at true love. \nAbout the Author:\nAlys Murray is a novelist and screenwriter based in New Orleans. She received a BFA from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and a Master’s in film studies from King’s College London. Alys is the author of the sweetly romantic Full Bloom Farm series\, and she’s the screenwriter behind five films on Hallmark and Lifetime. A Netflix x Inevitable Foundation Visionary Fellow\, Alys is a proud advocate for disabled voices and stories in entertainment.

SUMMARY:Two Way Street Coffee House - Lee Murdock
DESCRIPTION:Two Way Street Coffee House is Chicagoland’s most beloved folk and acoustic music venue\, presenting weekly concerts and community events for over 55 years!  The show starts at 8pm (CT) and the doors open at 7:30pm. (Suggested donation $10\, cash or Paypal).  We will also host this concert virtually.  You may access the livestream on www.twowaystreet.org\, on our Facebook page\, or on our YouTube channel. \nOn Friday\, March 13\, 2026 Two Way Street Coffee House Friday Night Concert Series presents Lee Murdock. \nLee Murdock has uncovered a boundless body of music and stories in the Great Lakes. Taking snapshots from history\, his songs summon the listener to take a front-row seat\, to look through the eyes and into the hearts of individuals who have shaped our heritage on and around the Great Lakes. His concerts invoke a sense of place\, but it is a universal place\, and a timeless repertoire that celebrates the North American people\, their triumphs and tragedies\, work songs and pastimes. \nNoted as a fluent instrumentalist on six and twelve string guitars\, Murdock combines ragtime\, Irish\, blues and folk styles with this flair for storytelling in songs. His musical influences span fifteen generations\, and combine original compositions with traditional music. \nThere is an amazing timelessness in this music. Great Lakes songs are made of hard word\, hard living\, ships that go down and ships that come in. \nThe music is grounded in the work song tradition\, from the rugged days of lumberjacks and wooden sailing schooners. Murdock comes alongside with ballads of contemporary commerce and revelry in the grand folk style. Lee’s fans have discovered a sweetwater treasure in his songs about the Great Lakes\, finding drama and inspiration in the lives of sailors and fishermen\, lighthouse keepers\, ghosts\, shipwrecks\, outlaws and everyday heroes. \nIf you can’t join us in person\, you can still tune in virtually to catch the show!  Make your donation HERE to Lee Murdock.  Visit www.twowaystreet.org for more information.
