I’m teaching The Curiosities: A Collection of Stories by @maggie-stiefvater, @brennayovanoff, and @tessagratton next semester, and I can’t wait to show my students my personalized copy and tell them about how I got to spend the day hanging out with the Merry Sisters of Fate.

Teaching woes

On the one hand, I want my students to learn the skills like prioritizing, which is why I’m explicit with them about the reading they can and should do--none of them are English majors, I don’t give quizzes because that’s not what my class is about, and they really only have to read one book per unit to do the necessary work. (Now, is their grade going to be better if they read all the books? Of course, and I tell them that. But they’re adults and they can decide what to read and what not to read, rather than just whine about the reading.) 

But on the other hand, it makes class discussions so much more difficult when no one can contribute anything because no one read.

The first 3 books I'm teaching this semester are Red Queen, Shatter Me, and The Coldest Girl in Coldtown.

And just, guys, this is what I've been waiting for, this is what I've been working toward.
