Orbital | Samantha Harvey

pick

I loved Orbital. A very poetic thoughtful read…I wasn‘t sure how any book could beat James for the Booker, but now I understand.
Loved Clear also.. another beautifully written thoughtful book.
Every year I read a classic…a chunkster…this year it‘s Middlemarch! This is my second attempt and I‘m determined to finish it..
Happy reading everyone

JamieArc I started Middlemarch a year or two ago when a group was reading it here on Litsy. I only made it a third of the way so finishing it is one of my goals too. 3mo

CarolynM My husband is reading and enjoying Middlemarch at the moment. He said he‘s thinking of it as a series of books, rather than one book, so he can take a break when he reaches the end of each of its parts. 3mo

Freespirit Hi @JamieArc I will let you know how it goes! I‘m sure it will be well worth reading 😊 3mo

Freespirit What a great idea Carolyn! I wish my hubby read novels more. I often read him snippets of books I read. He reads articles and some non fiction. I think I have convinced him to read Orbital😊 @CarolynM 3mo

Hot Dog: (Winner of the 2023 Caldecott Medal) | Doug Salati

Since this book was about a dog, trying to find his calm, I would use this book to help with my student social emotional development as a whole class lesson.
