Every year the Haverhill Public Library picks one book for a community-wide read!
Join us for an afternoon with author January Gill O’Neil! She will talk about her poetry collection Glitter Road. The talk will be followed by a book signing. Five people will receive a free copy of the book! The winners will be selected from a random drawing of those registered to attend, and you must be present to win. Register HERE!
Copies of Glitter Road will be available wherever books are sold. You can also borrow a copy of the book from the library.
