For today’s Five on Friday we
interviewed Sally over at Readingjunky. Sally teaches Children’s Lit and Adolescent
Lit at Siena Heights University in Adrian, MI.
Her students post book reviews every week here. Be sure to check them out!
What was your favorite book last year (2013)?
ELEANOR & PARK by Rainbow Rowell
– To be totally honest, I passed it by for months thinking it just didn’t
seem like something I would like. I finally purchased a copy, read it,
and still find myself thinking about it months later.
What advice do you wish you could give to your younger self?
Be confident in who you are! I
stayed in the shadows and didn’t realize I had a lot to be proud of and a lot
of great stuff to offer. You don’t have to be an athlete or a popular kid
to be a great kid.
What super power do you wish you had and why?
My name would be Timesaver and I’d
wear a huge clock like Flavor Flav. My super power would be add hours to
your day when you are faced with time commitments that don’t allow you time for
yourself or time to relax with family and friends. I could grant your
wish for more than a 24-hour day.
What are three things you always have with you?
A book, a backup book, and a backup
for the backup book.
What's your favorite season of the year?
I am completely enjoying our
record-breaking Michigan winter because the snow days are great for added
reading time.
Sally, keep enjoying the snow and writing the book
reviews!
