Another two down for 2024. Really enjoyed both- was surprised by Piranesi in the best way. Both expertly crafted and hard to put down 📖@susannaclarke_ @SebastianFaulks #BookoftheDay #read #reading #bookreviews #book #books #reading

Starting to delve into the #UEL library fiction section and found this @WomensPrize winner from @kamilashamsie ! Raced through it- loved the contemporary approach to the myth of Antigone. #Book #books #reading #readingforpleasure #bookX

After a few colour printing issues I have finally managed to get my #UEL #PrimaryPGCE Author of the Month posters printed. This month it is the turn of @mattdelapena. An author whose work I always use in my teaching- I’ve already lent some of my copies to eager students! #author

Finished this @NobelPrize winner last night and found it a really fascinating read. It was harder work than the last few books I’ve read but super interestingly written and the themes/concepts were right up my alley #book #BookTwitter #reading #read #readingforpleasure #books

Putting up posters around campus to shout out our UEL Primary PGCE Author of the Month- @wafatarnowska! Hoping to increase student teachers’ knowledge of children’s books and authors across the year, inspired by the @OpenUni_RfP 😊📚 #books #PGCE #reading #teachersasreaders

After hearing @whatSFSaid speak at @The_UKLA conference this Summer, I had to read his book Tyger. I feel like this could open up so much rich discussion with KS2/KS3 learners. And adults to be fair- because I loved it! #reading #readingforpleasure #book #books #bookreview

Today on the UEL Primary PGCE, each student wrote a Reading for Pleasure pledge- the first small step they will take when they start placement to help build a love of reading in the children they teach! #PGCE #UEL #readingforpleasure #reading #schools #education

What a debut by @AubeReyLescure! Confidently and engagingly written, with complex and believable characters. Loved getting an insight into the changes in 21st century China and its relationship with the West. A very deserving @WomensPrize nominee. #book #books #reading #read

Another brilliant @TheBookerPrizes winner, this time from Jenny Erpenbeck. So interesting to read something set in East Germany, and such skilled writing to make a character so gradually deplorable ! #reading #book #booklovers #books 😉#booktwt #readingforpleasure #readers

Two more excellent books I read while on holiday, particularly the @TheBookerPrizes winning novel by @paullynchwriter which I really loved. Terrifying, clever and beautifully unusual. #book #books #readingforpleasure #bookreviews #booklog #reading

A beautifully and distinctively written book by Natalia Ginzburg, exploring life in Italy during the Second World War. Will definitely be looking out for more of her work! #reading #readingforpleasure #book #books #BookReview
