5/28/2023 0 Comments Katherine arden small spaces![]() ![]() She has no desire in going back to the hobbies she once loved such as softball and chess. She still gets a pass for tuning out the world and retreating into herself. Teachers and classmates still look at her with pity. Ollie hasn't been the same since her mother died. I had no clue what SMALL SPACES was about when I first heard of it - or even that Arden had written a middle-grade novel! - but I instantly knew I wanted it. Initially, I knew about Arden because she wrote the popular adult fantasy Winternight trilogy, which begins with the much-acclaimed THE BEAR AND THE NIGHTINGALE. Today, I'd like to introduce you to the new kid on the block, SMALL SPACES by Katherine Arden. ![]() Another book in the genre I really love is DOLL BONES by Holly Black, which is a Newbery Honor title. ![]() Then, of course, you have well-established titles such as CORALINE by Neil Gaiman and entire catalogs from authors such as Mary Downing Hahn and R.L. Kozlowsky, which is no longer well-known. One of my favorites to recommend is JUNIPER BERRY by M.P. It is so hard to find a middle-grade book that is just the right amount of spine-tingling. ![]()
