The Secret Diary of a Teacher @thesecretdiaryofateacher - Tumblr Blog

Well today was a first...

I started my day with a fellow teacher telling me I wasn’t a ‘real’ teacher and shouldn’t be listened to or taken seriously.

The middle of my day had a parent tell me how much her son wants to be in my class.

And my day ended with a different fellow teacher tell me how I am the most dedicated teacher he knows but I care way too much about my students and am setting myself up to get hurt.

Book Discussion

What books have made you cry hysterically?

A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. Hands down, the biggest tearjerker I’ve read in a while.

Books that make you cry stick better than others.

I ugly cry a lot when I read… Me Before You andthe last 3 Harry Potter books are the ones that stick out the most in my mind though. Oh! And The Book Thief.

Definitely The Book Thief! I sobbed at the end of that one. Also Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys

Book Thief was a hard hitter and a popular book on this post.

Lynch’s Red Seas Under Red damn Skies. I start crying around halfway and then put off reading the most difficult bits until I can do it at home, with a pile of kleenex. And it never gets any easier.

Yaasss Code Name Verity!! I had to stop and cry for like a solid twenty minutes before I could finish the last fifty pages or so.

Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult!!! I finished the book, closed it, and continued to bawl.

We Were the Mulvaneys. I don’t remember who wrote it but it got me.

No one really understands how much compliments actually mean to me, like I sometimes brush them off with a joke and a quick “thank you,” but really, I remember compliments forever, so if you’ve ever complimented me or done something nice for me, thank you so much.
