The hoopla team put together some great suggestions from our collection of audiobooks, eBooks, comics, music, movies, and TV to take the chill out of the next few months. hoopla has been heating up since last winter, too, by adding some new features and expanding others. Our audiobooks and music now support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. We’re expanding BingePass with a range of new options designed specifically for kids. And hoopla Bonus Borrows continue, letting you stretch your budget with free content that members love. It’s easier than ever to cosy up to hoopla.

GRAPHIC NOVEL BOOK CLUB May 1 - July 31, 2022
Spotlight Selection:
Doctor Strange Vol. 1: The Way of the Weird by Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo
Who do you call when things are coming out of your dreams and trying to kill you? Or when your daughter is cursing in Latin and walking like a spider? Or when your dog keeps screaming at you to strangle your neighbors? Doctor Strange, of course. He's the only person standing between us and the forces of darkness, but has he been paying his tab? Every act of magic has a cost and Jason Aaron (Thor, Original Sin) and Chris Bachalo (Uncanny X-Men) are going to put Stephen Strange through hell to even the scales.
