If you’re just as obsessed as me with Hannah Grace’s Icebreaker and Wildfire then you must read Collide by Bal Khabra, otherwise it’s a crime against hockey romance novels.

Ken Follett's Century Trilogy: Enthralling historical fiction series. Don't miss it...
Dating Mr. Darcy is the first book in the Love Manor Romantic Comedy series by Kate O'Keeffe. Emma is not your regular girl. She has an activewear business that she hopes will become successful, she is clumsy, and she is determined to a fault. She will do anything to promote her brand and no opportunity is a bad opportunity to get the success she wants. But is becoming part of a reality show worth it? An opportunity is an opportunity, right? So what if she has to put up with the most arrogant man she has ever had the misfortune to meet. Sebastian Huntington-Ross is a handsome fellow but his not-so-charming personality and accent are not worth it. But before she knows it, sparks fly, the chemistry between them ignites and Emma has to stop and wonder, should she put her heart on the line? Short, sweet, and filled with humor, Dating Mr. Darcy is a quick pick-me-up for anyone who wants to get an instant boost of happiness. I will watch and re-watch it if the story is made into a movie, to be honest. Emma is feisty and she has a spark that makes her shine brightly. Sebastian is the typical haughty British “gentleman” who knows what he wants and how he will get it. The references to Pride and Prejudice, the hilarious first meeting between her and Sebastian, a.k.a. Mr. Darcy, and even their future interactions are part of the fun experience. The setting of the story is modern. Not every author can execute a romantic comedy, but author Kate O'Keeffe nailed it. This fast-paced romance is perfect for some light-hearted entertainment!
I liked it! I’m pretty sure I’ll forget the plot shortly, but I enjoyed it as I was reading and I’d definitely try out another book by this newer author as she continues to grow. …

Enliven your “Romeo and Juliet” lesson plans with these high-interest comics and activities. Your students will interact with the tale of the star cross'd lovers through fun and engaging comics with Shakespeare's language taken directly from the play. To add to the fun for students, there are Easter eggs hidden throughout the comics -- metaphors and other images from the play that are hidden in the illustrations for students to find. There are plenty of teaching ideas here and they are perfect for all ages, from visual learners to low-level or struggling readers. This set is also perfect for online learning when students need some support and scaffolding to get through the difficulties of reading a Shakespeare play. If you are using Google Classroom, take advantage of the ability to create a digital activity when you purchase this product. Distance learning with Shakespeare has never been better! THIS SET INCLUDES: One page comics for each Act. Act IV and V are presented as one comic. Each comic uses Shakespeare's dialogue taken straight from the play. Warm-up activities for each act that get kids interacting with the text before they read that build close reading skills and critical thinking (you can use them as bell ringers or you can use them afterward as well). Answer keys to all activities. Lots of funny stuff. (Trust me.) HOW YOU CAN USE THESE COMICS: As a quick overview of each act. They are better than online summaries that go into too much detail or give too much away. As support for reading the actual text instead of translated versions like Sparknotes. As a review for each act to make sure that every student has understood the material. As a catch-up for absent students. Coloring pages (students love this, and it decreases their stress). As a fun way to approach the Bard. Anything else you can think of! WHY COMICS? 90% of the information processed by the brain is visual. Comics dramatically increase the retention of material. They also aid in the understanding of difficult material. They serve the needs of visual learners and provide new opportunities for those with learning differences while benefiting all learners. They are fun! WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING: “Your cartoons have been such a help to my visual learners, and I love the warm-up activities associated with each act. We have enjoyed them, and I will use these for years to come!” “My kids absolutely loved these, especially finding the funny images or easter eggs thrown in. Thanks!” If you would like your students to create their own comics, check out my FREE Comic Strip Templates. ***************************************************************************************** Other Shakespeare resources you may also like: Intro to Shakespeare Activity BundleJulius Caesar Comics and Activities Hamlet Comic Summaries and Activities A Midsummer Night's Dream Comic Summaries and Activities Macbeth Comic Summaries and Activities Othello Comic Summaries and Activities The Big ‘Ol Shakespeare Bundle Connect with me!
