Fri 30 January 2026
7:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Come join US for a fun and engaging book discussion with LEANNE MORGAN!ABOUT THIS EVENT Union Ave Books is thrilled to present LEANNE MORGAN FOR HER _*DEBUT BOOK__ , __What In The World?!__ __A Southern Woman's Guide To Laughing At Life's Unexpected Curveballs And Beautiful Blessings_* . As Reese Witherspoon said, “this book is the inspirational story that we all need. With hard work, determination, and a quick sense of humor, Leanne Morgan went from marriage to motherhood to realizing her dreams. And she tells you all about it—yes, all of it—in her signature tell-it-like-it-is southern style that will make you chuckle from start to finish. No one makes me laugh harder than Leanne Morgan!" During the event, Leanne will be in conversation with Hallerin Hill, a top-rated drive-time radio talk show host for more than 30 years. _*ABOUT THE AUTHOR_* Leanne Morgan is a comedian, actress, writer, producer, wife, mother, and grandmama. Her first Netflix special, I’m Every Woman, was one of the most-watched specials on Netflix in 2023. Leanne has been named to the Forbes 50 Over 50 list and Variety’s 10 Comics to Watch list. When she’s not on the road, Leanne loves to be at home in Knoxville, Tennessee, with her husband, three children, two grandbabies, and beagle. _*ABOUT THE BOOK_* The beloved comedy sensation packs a hilarious punch with real talk about what it’s like to be a woman today—from rebelling against the latest diet trends to dealing with perimenopausal mean girls and attending rock concerts in middle age. For a long time, no one pulling the strings in the comedy world thought that a woman over fifty from rural Tennessee could make it in the industry. But Leanne Morgan has defied the odds, reaching millions with her musings on hormones, low-rise britches, Weight Watchers, and her opposites-attract relationship with her husband, Chuck. In her charming southern accent, Morgan brings readers inside her quest to find her voice after spending many years trying to figure out what that meant. Along the way, we learn how she grew up as a meat cutter’s daughter, landed a husband with health insurance, honed her stand-up technique selling jewelry at house parties, embraced the glories of aging, and surrendered to the comfort of wearing big flesh-toned panties. Equal parts warm and hilarious, this book is a must-read by one of comedy’s rising stars—reminding you that every time life leaves you asking “What in the world?!,” something good is bound to come out of it someday. _*ABOUT HALLERIN HILL_* Hallerin Hill is CEO and founder Anything Is Possible, LLC, and The Hapogee Group. He has been inducted into both the Tennessee Business Hall of Fame and the Tennessee Radio Broadcasters Hall of Fame. Most recently, he has been serving as a guest lecturer in the University of Tennessee’s Professional MBA program. Hallerin is a graduate of Oakwood University in Huntsville, Alabama where he studied Communications.
