Read Me: 10 Lessons for Writing Great Copy

Product Information

This was kind of a nice book about one girl’s experience of firstly realising she likes girls and then coming out. Hay tanto que decir, que me he tomado mi tiempo para digerir esta lectura. No he querido venir corriendo a contarles qué me ha parecido, me he tomado un buen rato, pues quería ver qué tanto era hype y cuanto calidad narrativa. Así que prepárate para una reseña inusualmente larga. A breath of crisp air. The crunch of leaves underfoot. That feeling of winding down. From starling murmurations and bold displays of colour to conkers, fruit and fungi, autumn is full of wonder – and it offers us a refreshing escape.” The feelings Ashleigh develops for her english teacher are what force her to question her sexuality. Why does she feel for her female teacher what she should feel for her boyfriend? I felt a real connection with this book, probably because I had major teacher crushes myself growing up and could relate to some of what she was feeling. I liked all of the characters and I found that it some ways I could relate to the story. The only downside for me was everyone 'knew' Ash was gay before she knew herself. This didn't sit too well with me...stereotyping maybe? Perhaps.

I've said in a recent review that it's hard to pull off a book in first person POV, but it works with this book. I felt I could relate to what Ashleigh was going through while also not feeling disconnected to the other characters. La baja autoestima, la primera vez teniendo relaciones sexuales y el embarazo adolescente. Puntos calientes que abordan infinidad de libros hoy en día. Es de lo que más se habla. Pero, ¿qué pasa cuando no disfrutas del sexo? ¿Cuándo lo haces con la persona equivocada y por las razones equivocadas? Tenemos varios personajes que se mueven en el plano sentimental intentando encontrar a un alguien que les corresponda como ellos quieren y las actitudes que toman son muy distintas. Este abanico que se abre, nos deja ver los diferentes procesos por los cuales atraviesa un adolescente en busca de su identidad. A young girl is in love with her new boyfriend. Then she starts to get feelings for her female, school teacher, Miss Murray. Cuando lei la sinopsis de este libro me parecio muy interesante, una chica que se enamora de su profesora de literatura, mientras sale con Dylan, un chico que conocio recientemente. Realmente me parecia interesante porque no sabia que iba a pasar o como lo iba a tratar la autora, pero sinceramente esta llena de NO, NO, NO esta historia.We’re able to help expand their horizons by supporting them in learning to read: a lifetime skill that changes their life chances. By the first third of the book I started to skim chapters. Maybe that makes this review invalid but I just could not keep going. There wasn't anything to captivate me anymore. The plot was predictable. The writing was very bland. ES QUE NO ENTIENDO ESTE LIBRO. NO ENTIENDO. Y EL FINAL. EL FINAL CHICOS. UNA CAGADA Y MENOS REALISTA IMPOSIBLE. Siento que la autora sofocó a la protagonista con todas las situaciones que los adolescente suelen llegar a vivir, TODO en menos de 300 páginas: amistad y conflictos, enamoramiento en todos los sentidos, la primera vez, un posible embarazo, problemas en la familia, entre otros como si fuera un gran surtido, solo faltaban las drogas. Lo recomiendo pero también recomiendo que no se cierren la cabeza a lo que dice la sinopsis porque puede que no terminen disfrutando mucho la historia :)

Hay libros que no aguantan una narración en primera persona, las tramas son ligeras y los personajes solo siguen un guión de niños de primaria. Generalmente, el problema reside en que la narración eclipsa el argumento, haciendo que todo gire en torno a los sentimientos del protagonista. Bien, aquí tenemos un poco de esto y un poco de aquello otro. The ads flow out of traditional spaces into the environment around them to emphasize how never ending the condition can make each day feel. Me hubiera gustado que muchos otros temas que se nombran o se dejan ver levemente tomaran más profundidad. Seguramente desde una narración en tercera persona se podría haber alcanzado esto. Pero, el mejor efecto es descubrir como todo va cambiando en la vida de Ash, muy lentamente, sin que ella se de cuenta, hasta que logra mirarse al espejo y encontrarse de verdad.Many of the children we hear don’t have this experience at home. They often have no story at bedtime and sometimes a limited life experience so that even if they can read a word they often can’t understand what it means. Your child, niece, nephew or grandchild has probably been on holiday, to visit relatives, or to the seaside; many of the children we help have never left the area in which they live.

In the UK there are an estimated 2 million people living with Long Covid, yet their struggles have been largely forgotten by many. El amor no discrimina y la ley no debería hacerlo. No en este país, no este mundo, no en esta vida." 🏳‍ I did not like the characters in this book. I didn't connect with any of the characters and I really, really wanted to. It was described that Ashely, the main character, is in love with her boyfriend. I honestly, did not feel any connection between the characters. I'm not sure if that was purposely done to show that she didn't really love him or not but I couldn't find any, tiny zap of love. Not even when Ashely began to talk to Miss Murray. I like that the coming out part of this story comes as a surprise to even the main character and out of nowhere. Ashleigh assumes she is straight and as a consequence starts a new relationship with a boy. She only questions it when things with him don't go well when he starts treating her poorly, things go wrong and find herself turning to her new English teacher for help when it all gets too much. The attraction she suddenly finds she has to Miss Murrary comes out of nowhere and suddenly opens Ashleigh's eyes to what she actually wants in life and from a relationship. I liked what this book had to say about how Ashleigh came to realise she was gay and how those around her reacted in a range of ways and that Asheligh just had to decide to focus on those who supported her and ignore the views of those who did not.The only criticism I’d have is that I’d like to have seen her relationship with Miss Murray developed further. Ashleigh develops an infatuation with Miss Murray (and at parts it’s kind of a creepy infatuation) but to add tension I would have liked to see things going further between them rather than the flirtation they have. I get that Miss Murray was pivotal in making Ashleigh realise she liked girls, but I think more could have actually happened. You can see how her compliments make people feel. It’s like she switches a light on inside their eyes.’ Students can have any text they need to read, read aloud to them so they can read along. Having the text provided both visually and auditory, allows the student to focus less on the act of reading, and more on the comprehension of the content. Other features like dyslexia font, flexible reading speeds, and highlighted text also ease the task of finishing readings. REVIEW TIME! Read me like a book por Liz Kessler. ⭐⭐⭐ Siendo breve, la historia dentro de Read me like a book se trata de una chica que descubre que en realidad le gustan las chicas (nada nuevo) a partir de un enamoramiento con su nueva profesora de literatura, pero el libro en sí se basa en el autodescubrimiento de uno mismo, que somos más complejos de lo que nos imaginamos y que no tenemos respuestas siquiera para responder quienes somos porque uno nunca deja de aprender de uno mismo.
