Inspired by The Traitors, #wordsforwellbeing today focussed on unreliable narrators. I kicked things off by reading a bit of a golden oldie, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime. A joy to introduce this classic book to a new generation of readers!

This year, rather than just one S2 class participating in RED, we have offered it up to all S2 as an elective. We met for the first time last week and I introduced the shortlist to much enthusiasm!

Thank you T for baking these incredible ginger biscuits for Books and Bakes. The cookies and my sponge cakes were gone in seconds! Also I managed to have time to read my own book too. Absolute win! #ReadingSchool

One week til our BOOK FAIR!

I really do have the best bookgroup! Not so much words for wellbeing today rather than words to unsettle...taking turns to share favourite ghost stories. D&J told us The Tell Tale Heart, , J told The Girl With The Green Ribbon, and T,C and P told us their own ghost stories. Terrifying stuff!

Today the Library is being staffed by Shy Guy and Mr Mcintosh’s S1 classes have been chilled to the bone with these ghost stories…

LOVE this book so far! Right from the start we got good vibes, the main character is from Linlithgow 🙌
Too impatient to wait for our copy to arrive I borrowed this from @falkirklibraries.bsky.social and intend to read a bit from chapter 9 to #wordsforwellbeing book group today. Hot chocolate and #storydeck cards also on the agenda! #readingschool
