![]() It’s not a new thought, but he solves it in a way that I thought was quite interesting. ![]() This allows them to know not only how much time has passed since the event occurred, but also where in space the event took place. They handle this by tracing a specific type of radiation left from an event in the past. ![]() Even if you could travel back in time thirty years, you’d just find yourself floating in empty space, since the planet is continuously rotating and orbiting the sun. He brings up the point that time travel doesn’t just require a shift in time but also a shift through space. It’s so easy to end up with glaring holes that take you out of the story, but I really loved how Mastai handled it in this. Time travel is always a tricky thing to write. He has to adjust to this alternative life while hopefully finding a way to restore his timeline. While travelling back in time, a terrible mistake is made, and the traveller returns to 2016 to find his technological paradise replaced with the world we have now. In this alternate 2016, they have also just discovered a way to solve the puzzle of time travel. ![]() ![]() This is the debut novel from Vancouver writer Elan Mastai, a science-fiction story about a man who lives in a different 2016, one with all of the technological advances we grew up dreaming about – flying cars, medical advancements, food replicators, and, my personal favourite, the ability to wake up refreshed with no grogginess. ![]() ![]()

I found myself grateful when the entire novel was finally released for publication. The short story left me holding my breath for months, amazed at the imagery and word play that sculpted a magical story of memory as transportation. In the short story, Hiram is gifted with a slice of fresh gingerbread from a free black bakery owner in Philadelphia, and the warm treat jogs memories that Hiram, whose gift is the gift of memory, had forgotten in the shock of losing his mother to a slave sale in Virginia at a very young age. Back in June of this year Coates read an excerpt of the book adapted as a short story for The New Yorker Fiction podcast, a short story entitled “Conduction,” and his solid speech told the story of protagonist Hiram Walker’s first days in the free city of Philadelphia. Long before The Water Dancer by Ta-Nehisi Coates was announced as the next Oprah Book Club selection, I have anticipated this novel. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() Scholastic Book Wizard has identified this book as a Pre K-3 level. Along with being a silly rhyming book, this can be considered a concept book because of its evaluation of the timeline of each month and the weather that changes along with it. Each month, along with the changing weather, the narrator talks about how perfect chicken soup with rice is for any occasion. In February he enjoys some chicken soup with rice with a snowman pal. In January, he is sipping chicken soup with rice while sliding on the ice. Each month, the narrator talks about how perfectly chicken soup with rice goes with the festivities of the month. As someone who lived off of chicken soup with rice every season of the year, especially when I first moved to Pennsylvania, I loved to read this with my mom and share a giggle about how much we related to his character. ![]() ![]() Chicken Soup with Rice has always been one of my favorite concept books growing up. ![]() ![]() ![]() She continued the column, called The Trentonian, through much of her writing career.

But at what cost does success come for Edward, and how does his relentless pursuit of notoriety and fortune change the lives of each of the four women? In this “fallen angel,” Edward sees his entire future in the form of a gift from God, and now he wants to get his hands on a living specimen.
