20.2 - Rookie at the Top - Nicola's task: School's Out For Summer

[Donna Jo]

If using the teacher option, does she need to be in a classroom setting. The heroine in Bringing Down Sam is a teacher, but aside from mentioning it several times, it is not an important plot element.
If it doesn't work, it's not a big deal.

For option 1, Summer scene on cover:

[Lorna]

Will this work for Option 3? (Explosion or flashes of light)

Black Heart
Cassel goes to Wallingford (actually, not sure how it's spelled as I'm listening to audiobook version), a prep/boarding school."

Nothing about boarding school was mentioned in the synopsis- however if that is the setting go ahead. I was trying to find an excerpt but could not.

I guess we don't get many night skies like that on the winter - approved

I see flashes of fire - approved

I wanted to check a couple of books for option 3... hoping they count as being set at a boarding school.

A Great and Terrible Beauty

The Mysterious Benedict Society

and

Shadow Hills

Thanks!!

All three of those work.

Please note if you are looking for approval in the next week or so I will be on vacation with unknown access to the internet. I apologize in advance if I am unable to get back to you quickly - I will definitely check everything next weekend (July 7th).
I will be reading on my sisters dock, hoping the week is full of sunshine!

Nicola, did I miss your answer to whether I could use Bringing Down Sam for the teacher option (message 51)?

I am SO sorry! I thought that I had got them all.
It is approved.

Thanks. And don't worry--it is so easy to have a post slip through the cracks.

Would Fifty Shades Darker work for Option 2? It appears to take place a couple of weeks after Ana graduates from school & while she works her first job post-school. Thanks!!!

That fits! Third one is the best IMO - hope you are liking them.

Would: The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter--And How to Make the Most of Them Nowby Meg Jay work for option 2??
It is about how to search for your life's direction and create your own productivity, and opportunities in the job market.

That works!

I'd like to make sure Einstein's Monsters will work for option 3. It's a series of stories about nuclear war and post-apocalyptic survivors.
