Welcome to the Book Brew Cafe, especially designed for voracious middle school readers who want a space to share their love of books with others. Here we have a cozy online space where students are invited to share their passion for stories. 

*Everyone is welcome, whether they love speaking and can’t wait to tell others about their book, or whether they always have their nose in a book and tend to keep quiet. 

*Each month, there will be a different topic or theme for choosing their own book, so they will have the challenge of reading something new that somehow fits into that category.

*No pressure

*No homework (reading a choice book is not “homework,” right?!)

*Gather to sip on the rich flavors of our favorite books . . . oh! And sip on your favorite drink. (chai tea for me!)

*Savor the excitement of hearing about others’ reading adventures. 

Here are the monthly challenges:

June: Read a book with a crazy cover (or cover image if reading digitally).
July: Read a historical fiction book or book that revolves around a real historical event or the distant past.
August: Read a book with an unusual narrator (who is telling the story).
September: Read a book with a huge conflict in it.
October: Read a mystery book or book that looks a little scary.
November: Read a book that has an uplifting or very positive word in the title.
December: Read a book that was just released this past year.
January: Read a book set in a cold winter or climate.
February: Read a skinny book, or shorter book than you typically choose.
March: Read a book that has won a major award.
April: Read a book related to nature.
May: Read a book that inspires you to be a better person.

*You're only billed for the class dates that we meet. (It is confusing because the the classes default to $weekly, but you are NOT charged during weeks your session doesn't meet.)
