Hi everyone! My name is Mrs. Shirley and this is my third year at Carmody! I am looking forward to getting to know all of you. I am hopeful you all leave with a few books you LOVE from the year, so your reading habits are carried far into the future for you!
A few of my favorite authors and books are:
The Scythe Trilogy by Neal Shusterman
Harry Potter by JK Rowling (I am a Hufflepuff!)
The Caraval Series by Stephanie Garber
Any Taylor Jenkins Reid books (Daisy Jones and the Six, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo)
There are also so many mystery/thriller books I LOVE! If you really want a nail-biter, Riley Sager is amazing (Lock Every Door).
In my free time, I love to bake, garden, read, and hang out with our cute puppies. We just adopted a second dog, Peach! Peach and her sister, Bean, will be featured in many pictures in our room!
Can't wait to find the books that you love! I am looking forward to an amazing year in ELA and seeing so much growth from you all!
