Never heard of "Hyperbole and A Half" and the book it spawned? Let Allie tell you about it. Also, due to time constraints, Allie will only be able to sign books, so please leave other merchandise/memorabilia at home. Members in our Friends with Benefits program get 20% off the event book and a ticket to the priority signing line, so sign up or mention your membership when you buy. You can purchase the book and get a ticket in our store, over the phone (at 32), or on our website (just leave a note in the "order comments" field that you'd like a ticket). Tickets will become available on the day the book is released - October 29. To get a ticket to go through the signing line, you must purchase a copy of Hyperbole and a Half here at Skylight Books. As always, our events are free and open to the public, but we will be issuing numbered singing line tickets to keep the line organized (the number is your place in line). NOTE: We're expecting a big crowd for this event. Skylight Books is excited, stoked, and over-the-moon ecstatic to be hosting Allie Brosh, creator of the award-winning blog "Hyperbole and a Half."
