Currently reading THE NIGHT WAR by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
Welcome to Readingjunky's Reading Roost
Hello fellow readers! I retired after 40 years of teaching middle and high school English. I still teach at the college level - Children's and Adolescent Literature - and I truly enjoy connecting my students with great books.
For anyone not familiar with my posts, I review mostly YA fiction. My focus is on books for middle grades and high school age readers. I have reserved the right to review only books I feel I can review positively. After all, I believe life is too darn short to read books that don't truly interest me.
Readers will be able to view a brief summary of each book, my quick thoughts on any unique qualities in the book, and a peek at the cover. (I confess - I do sometimes "judge a book by its cover.") I will also post information about Accelerated Reader points since my students will be interested in this information.
I appreciate any comments you would like to share regarding the books reviewed and also suggestions about additional books that readers might enjoy. Always on the lookout for new material to use in my classroom, I'm open to any and all suggestions.
I look forward to sharing many reading related thoughts with interested readers.
Read on!
RJ
