We’ll provide lunch, give you the staff discount that day, and get out the scanners! We have fun while we count—if you’d like to join us, let Jen or Sally know (jen@beagleandwolf.com or sally@beagleandwolf.com ). Obsessive people particularly welcome! We’ll work until 2:00. |
Due to the approaching snowstorm, we have rescheduled Night In to February 8. Morning In will be February 9. Please contact us to confirm or cancel your existing reservation: 218-237-2665 or sally@beagleandwolf.com. We anticipate additional openings for each session. To avoid overcrowding, we ask that you make reservations (no charge.) Ask your friends and book club members to come, too!

Midwest Connection Picks
Once More to the Rodeo: A Memoir
Calvin Hennick
Five years into fatherhood, Calvin Hennick is plagued by self-doubt and full of questions. As a white man, what can he possibly teach his biracial son about how to live as a black man in America? And what does it even mean to be a man today? In this unforgettable debut memoir, Calvin takes his young son on the road, traveling from Boston across the country to his hometown in Iowa, seeking answers. He holds a mirror up to both himself and modern America, in an urgent and timely story that all parents, and indeed all Americans, need to read.
Such a Fun Age
Kiley Reid
A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a page-turning and big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both.
The Gimmicks
Chris McCormick
Set in the waning years of the Cold War, a stunning debut novel about a trio of young Armenians that moves from the Soviet Union, across Europe, to Southern California, and at its center, one of the most tragic cataclysms in twentieth-century history—the Armenian Genocide—whose traumatic reverberations will have unexpected consequences on all three lives.
The Heap
Sean Adams
Blending the piercing humor of Alexandra Kleeman and the jagged satire of Black Mirror, an audacious, eerily prescient debut novel that chronicles the rise and fall of a massive high-rise housing complex, and the lives it affected before—and after—its demise.
