It wasn’t until after her death that her sister found all 1700+ poems scattered around Emily’s bedroom and published them posthumously. Not to mention, during her lifetime she only had eleven poems traditionally published. There’s also a lot of speculation, which I think evidence for is quite strong, that she was in love with her sister-in-law, Susan Gilbert. She never married, never followed any of the traditional expectations placed upon 19th century women. Of course, one of the appeals of Emily Dickinson to a modern reader is her interesting life story. But I think my favourite poems are the ones were she has a little zest for life and describes really simple ideas, such as how spring feels, wishing March could last forever, and how a bee lives its life. So many of her poems focus on the idea of Death and how much she courts it. Her writing is so profound and existential, it’s hard to put the book down. I then picked up The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson as soon as I finished the show. If you’re looking for complete historical accuracy, I wouldn’t watch the show, but if you’re looking for a fun romp of a show that features a lovely queer relationship, then you’d enjoy it. I initially became intrigued by Emily Dickinson’s poetry after watching the hilarious yet poignant show loosely based on her life, Dickinson.

A prayer for owen meany by john irving5/24/2023 “If I haven’t already written the ending-and I mean more than a rough draft-I can’t write the first sentence.” “I never write the first sentence until I know all the important things that happen in the story, especially-and I mean exactly-what happens at the end of the novel,” he wrote after the book was published. Irving always writes the ends of his novels first, and Owen Meany was no different: He wrote the penultimate paragraph of the novel first, and added the last paragraph two days later. The first sentence of A Prayer for Owen Meany is John Irving’s favorite. Here are a few things you might not have known about it. Author John Irving’s novel about a boy with a “wrecked voice” who believes he’s an instrument of God is a staple on high school summer reading lists.

In The Spirit by J.C. Hart5/24/2023 Christ in YOU.”Ĭhrist has a purpose in you. Paul gave it to the Gentiles as the supreme mystery of all the revelation of God and the finality of all wonder he knew. But men have discovered how to utilize it and bless themselves with it.Ĭhrist’s indwelling in the human heart is the mystery of mysteries. It is not that electricity has just come into being. There was just as much electricity in the world then as now. The world lived in darkness for thousands of years. The world is awakening to that marvelous truth, that Christ is not in the heavens only, nor in the atmosphere only, but Christ is IN YOU. It is the factor that is changing the spirit of religion in the world and the character of Christian faith. That is the revolutionizing power of God in the earth. That is the text, “Christ lives in me.” That is the revelation of this age.

The wild robot book5/24/2023 It espouses strong values (loyalty, courage, tolerance, perseverance, kindness) all while exploring the possibility of a robot actually living and surviving in the wilderness. Why I LOVE This Book:ġ.It would be absolutely perfect as a read-aloud in a Grade 1 to 3 classroom. After battling a fierce storm and escaping a vicious bear attack, she realizes that her only hope for survival is to adapt to her surroundings and learn from the island’s unwelcoming animal inhabitants.Īs Roz slowly befriends the animals, the island starts to feel like home - until, one day, the robot’s mysterious past comes back to haunt her. She has no idea how she got there or what her purpose is - but she knows she needs to survive. When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is alone on a remote, wild island. Themes: Fiction, Robots, Animals, Friendship, Survival, Adventure Publishing: Little, Brown & Company, 2016 So maybe you’re in the same boat and this is a “new” book for you, too. I’m really surprised I didn’t stumble across this book a lot earlier because it’s been around for two years and I LOVE Peter Brown’s picture book My Teacher is a Monster! (No, I Am Not.) I don’t think I’ve ever reviewed a chapter book on this blog, but after reading The Wild Robot, I absolutely HAD to share it with you.

Their competition and subsequent cooperation become one of the main plot points of the book.Īs a matter of fact, the relationship between Greg and Maura becomes the ultimate demonstration of the book’s emotional appeal. She demonstrates similar behavior and resembles the protagonist in terms of the love of money.
