WINTER READING SUGGESTIONS
Hey guys! I'm Grace from the Middle School Reading Ambassadors Club. Don't forget to read! We have a list of books in all genres recommended by our middle school group. We all encourage you to spend some time reading, really take it from me from a person who disliked books so much I had a streak of 5 years of not opening one book, but now I finish at least 5 books a month. If you have a favorite movie, maybe it has a book, try reading it (the book is always better!) if you pick the right one it can make you feel like you are floating. Try something, get the media away, get comfy and pick out a nice book that you might enjoy, engage with the book and characters. You can always borrow books from the library, go ahead and get a few books before the break! Have fun! Don't forget with reading, you develop and improve more skills and brainpower! Have a good break and don't forget to read! :)
Hey guys! We hope you all have a great winter break. Don’t turn your brain off completely during this break. You can relax and unwind by reading! We know that sometimes reading may feel like a chore because we sometimes are forced to read something that we may not really like for school but reading can be enjoyable! Here are a few of our favorite and highly recommended book suggestions if any of you are looking for something new to read over the holidays. We hope you find something from here that you are interested in! Happy Holidays! - The High School Reading Ambassadors
Recommendations from the Newsletter Team
Not only will you have reading recommendations from your fellow students, but from the newsletter team itself!
All The Light We Cannot See
All The Light We Cannot See
By Anthony Doerr
*Winner of the Pulitzer Prize* A New York Times Book Review Top Ten Book* A National Book Award Finalist*
From Anthony Doerr, the highly acclaimed, multiple award-winning author of Cloud Cuckoo Land, the beautiful, stunningly ambitious instant New York Times bestseller about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II.
Dune
Dune
By Frank Herbet
Arguably a masterpiece of the Science Fiction genre, Dune laid the foundation for many of the epics that followed its publication. Herbert addresses overarching themes of family politics, religion, environment, and the all-encompassing temptation of power, all set against the backdrop of a futuristic civilization that, at times, can be unflinchingly prophetic. You will taste the sand in your mouth and soon be hungry for the next installment.
The Hate U Give
The Hate U Give
By Angie Thomas
Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, Angie Thomas's searing debut about an ordinary girl in extraordinary circumstances addresses issues of racism and police violence with intelligence, heart, and unflinching honesty.
