Damn. Just finished the original Red Rising trilogy by Pierce Brown and I think it just chemically altered my brain. This may be my new favorite trilogy ever. The world building, the characters, the action/plot twists, & the writing itself. Just WOW! 🤯 Can’t wait to start the next 3 books! #booksky

Kids being read to at a young age is essential, as is adults modeling the behavior of reading. As kids get older, the element of choice in their reading is also incredibly important. I have classes full of 8th graders learning to love to read for the first time in our book club unit #edusky #booksky
ICYMI: HarperCollins UK today revealed compelling new research to understand children’s increasing disengagement with reading, with fewer than half of under four-year-olds read to frequently. 👇 #BookSky
'Very concerning' HarperCollins research shows only 43% of under fours are read to frequently

This WIP has me doing things I never thought I would. Writing encyclopedia entries for magical creatures? ✅ Writing poetry lyrics for pixie songs? ✅ This story has become so alive, and so are the characters. #5amwritersclub #writersky #writing
