We hope you get and give lots of BOOKS!  You know the last installment of Christopher Paolini’s Inheritance cycle is out, right?  BIG book, plus you have to read Eragon, Eldest, and Brisingr before that!  I am going to pass, but I know there are lots of Alagaesia fans here at Rocky and I do hope it ends well for you. 

If you’re dying for more Paolini and Inheritance reading material, check out  The Inheritance Almanac or Secrets of the Dragonriders…but I digress.

  There are a lot of OTHER new books as well, some great student suggestions like Bonnie Jo Campbell’s American Salvage and Women and other animals.  My favorite new fiction is a book called Revolver, this is a gem, a fantastic quick read about a boy trying to get out of a murderous situation alone in the Arctic after his dad falls through the ice.

Things I am taking home to read over Winter break:

Nickel Plated

Ready Player One

For the Win

Knifepoint

Draw the Dark

and Women and other animals, the one I mentioned before that was recommended by one of our awesome students!  I know I won’t have time to read them all, plus I’ve got some non-fiction from the public library…so I’m all set for some fantastic reading time! 

See you January 10th!
