November 7, 2022 by faintingviolet 10 Comments

Registration for Book Exchange is now closed. Make sure to keep an eye on the Book Exchange tag to see what gifts make their way to excited Cannonballers.    Each year Cannonball Read holds a (completely voluntary) Holiday Book Exchange, and we’re happy to continue the tradition this year.

CBR Diversion: Spooky Season Reads

October 27, 2022 by Emmalita 23 Comments

Since October 1, I’ve seen several of you posting about your spooky books and movies on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram. Personally, I’m not a huge horror fan, but I like some mixed in with another genre – for example, Tamsyn Muir’s Locked Tomb series is a great blend of sci fi, fantasy, and horror. Do you read specific books in the lead up to Halloween? Are you more of a straight horror fan, or do you look for a cozy mystery with witches? Or do […]

Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: tiny_bookbot

October 19, 2022 by Bothari43 4 Comments

What’s your favorite piece of literature (or theory, technique, etc.) to teach to your college students?  My favorite authors to teach are probably Charlotte Brontë and Virginia Woolf. Jane Eyre is of course a book with some plot elements that really raise our eyebrows (Edward Fairfax Rochester what ARE you doing?!) but those same elements are what help it to teach well, because it gives us real stuff to dig into and discuss. Also, Brontë burns through loads of plot, which hooks my students, while also […]
