Author Spotlight: Kimberly Brubaker Bradley

Kimberly Brubaker Bradley At my school, I am a Library Leader. (Library Leaders promote reading in the middle school and recommend books for the younger grades.) The Library Leaders had the fortunate opportunity of eating lunch and meeting with Kimberly Brubaker Bradley. We got to ask her questions and just talk with her. Mrs. Bradley also spoke to the whole seventh and eighth grade in assembly about her research. 1)      When/How does she write? Mrs. Bradley writes in the morning, but this depends on her chores for the day. She got into her routine when her children, now graduating college and out of college, were small and went to school. She would always wait until her husband took them to drop them off at school. She likes for her writing space to be very quiet. She prefers typing when she when she writes as to writing. (This may be pretty common; I do not know what the common format among writers is today. I just thought I would include eve...

2020 So Far In Books

Thus far this year, I have read more books than in any previous year, recorded on this blog or not. Whether my goal to read a lot this year or quarantine fueled my reading, my list is long (not the longest, but long enough to be very proud of). I will start doing these reports on a regular basis. It keeps me accountable to you all in my reading.  I have read 15 books as of the end of July 2020. Here are a couple of charts and statistics that represent the group.  Links of those that I HAVE reviewed are below: http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/07/the-murder-on-links.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/07/an-inspector-calls.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/07/all-kings-men.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/07/head-over-heels.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/06/the-great-gatsby.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/06/the-man-in-high-castle.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/06/the-abc-murders.html http://betweenp.blogspot.com/2020/05/the-importance-of-be...

An Inspector Calls

J.B. Priestly's play on one family's responsibility for the suicide of Eva Smith shows how small action can lead to large consequences in the lives of others.  Summary The Birling family is celebrating the engagement of their daughter, Sheila. She has just been betrothed to Gerald Croft, the son of Sheila's father's business rival. This is a merging of families and a business treaty. As soon as the Birling family and Croft clink their glasses together in celebration, the maid enters the dining room and announces an police inspector calls. As soon as Inspector Goole enters the Birling residence, the house becomes hushed, panicked. Inspector Goole reports the suicide of Eva Smith, former employee of Arthur Birling. It is revealed over the course of the night that each family member has a suspicious amount of involvement in the young woman's life.  Review I loved this play. I have read 4 plays this year (this one along with "A Midsummer Night's Dream", ...
