Hoopla Recommendations

Leading Through Challenges by Robert Glazer- From national bestselling author, Robert Glazer, Leading through Challenges: 13 Weeks of Friday Forward During Pandemics and Protest provides readers with 13-methods from his viral platform (of the same name) that will inspire, motivate, and create lasting change-week over week.

Small Game Hunting by Megan Gail Coles- February in Newfoundland is the longest month of the year. Another blizzard is threatening to tear a strip off downtown St. John's, while inside The Hazel restaurant a storm system of sex, betrayal, addiction, and hurt is breaking overhead. Iris, a young hostess from around the bay, is forced to pull a double despite resolving to avoid the charming chef and his wealthy restaurateur wife. Just tables over, Damian, a hungover and self-loathing server, is trying to navigate a potential punch-up with a pair of lit customers who remain oblivious to the rising temperature in the dining room. Meanwhile Olive, a young woman far from her northern home, watches it all unfurl from the fast and frozen street. Through rolling blackouts, we glimpse the truth behind the shroud of scathing lies and unrelenting abuse, and discover that resilience proves most enduring in the dead of this winter's tale.
