WWW Wednesday

middle grade 1 Minute

This is a meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words.  It asks three questions:

1.       What are you currently reading?

2.       What did you recently finish reading?

3.      What do you think you’ll read next?

I’ve just started a digital review copy Elsetime by Eve McDonnell which I think has had its publication moved to September. The opening has immediately grabbed my attention!

This week I’ve read Strange Star by Emma Carroll which was fantastic. I think I was just in the mood for a dark, Gothic tale, and this was definitely that. I’ve also read The Pear Affair by Judith Eagle which I adored. I so felt for Nell, and was so glad she had the support of such a great friendship group. I have made notes on this, so I’m hoping to review it soon!

I have been sent a copy of Saving Winslow for review. I read the blurb which really appealed to me, as did the reference to Charlotte’s Web. For all sorts of personal reasons, I think this one is going to be a really special read for me.

I am a primary school teacher who is a voracious reader. I love reading children's books, talking to them about books, engaging them in reading for pleasure and recommending books to them.

    1. I read Gargantis as a PDF as Walker Books don’t have an option to send to Kindle on NetGalley. It was a little different reading on my computer, but I seem to be able to manage reading from a screen at the moment. Hope you’re ok? 💚

      1. I’m getting there, had a little upset over the girls and all ‘this’ and decided I needed a little help with my anxiety and although it’s making me sleepy (dr says is absolutely normal and it’s getting less every day) it’s absolutely helping which is a relief, but I struggle with on screen long form anyway as you know, I definitely don’t want to undo all the progress with migraines!

      2. I can only imagine how stressful this must be for you. It’s so important that you are strong enough to ask for help when needed – I’m so glad it’s helping you. I’m finding it harder too. My Dad passed away last Friday and was buried on Sunday. He lives in Ireland so I couldn’t go to his funeral which was so tough. I can’t wait to be able to meet up with my family and just give them all a hug!
