The Sparrow: A Novel | Mary Doria Russell
post image

I could not be more excited - my signed copies of The Sparrow and Children of God have arrived!!! Of course, this is the one time my dog Meelo wouldn't pose. Oh well, it's maybe better I don't let him near my good copies. He'll just have to pose with the ones that are dog eared and falling apart from use #marydoriarussell #meelo

underground_bks One of my favorite series of all time!! 2y
CuriousG @underground_bks Me too! Which would explain the dog named Meelo 😂 2y

LOVE CREATING “SPINE” POEMS.

THE WOMEN OF THE COPPER COUNTRY
"ARE A"
RECIPE FOR A PERFECT WIFE

The determination and power of women who literally had none in the 1900's... https://tinyurl.com/5am6fsfj

An old house, an old cookbook, notes in the cookbook that reveal the life of Nellie, and Alice who has some secrets of her own is what the reader finds in this lovely read. https://tinyurl.com/ydavx2ht

As was advertised by @SledgeReader and @Cinfhen at the end of the Buddy Read of The Sparrow we are looking to start the Buddy Read of the sequel, Children of God, in late August and September. We will post the schedule later today but are looking to start on Monday 20th August and hope you will join us. I think I have tagged in those who took part in The Sparrow but if I have missed anyone (😔) post a message below.

Please repost this message😊

Andrew65 Everyone welcome to join! 🤗 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 Yikes! You will have 3 buddy reads going on at once! Children of God, Mosiac and Emperor‘s Revenge! 6y

Andrew65 @EadieB Actually 6 ! Also reading Circling The Sun, The Waste Lands and The Word is Murder! 😂😂 I know I am totally mad! Although will most probably finish Circling The Sun Sunday night. 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 Amazing! 6y
Andrew65 @EadieB I like to make life difficult for myself but it does mean I read! 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 I have confidence in knowing you will make it happen! 6y
Andrew65 @EadieB I‘m confident I can do it, especially as still on holiday. Although next week will be starting to produce the new School improvement Plan too. 6y
AmyG Thank you for tagging me, but I will have to pass. I still haven‘t finished The Sparrow. 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 What are some of your ideas for school improvement? Have you thought about that yet? 6y
Andrew65 @AmyG Good luck with finishing The Sparrow 😊 6y
Andrew65 @EadieB Know what the five main strands will be just need to put all the steps in, success criteria, etc. Will be 25 - 30 page document by the time I am finished but it means less time reading. 😡 (edited) 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 Wow! That‘s like writing a novella! 6y
Andrew65 @EadieB Very much so, and also need to produce the self-evaluation document (10-15 boring pages) and my presentation for staff on the first day of term. 6y
EadieB @Andrew65 When is your first day of term? 6y
Andrew65 Monday 3rd September. 6y
CarolynM No thanks, The Sparrow was more than enough for me 6y
Andrew65 @CarolynM 👍😊 6y
jmtrivera I would love to, but I'm not quite ready to go back to that world yet. Thanks for thinking of me though! 6y
