The Year Ahead!

What to expect from For the Love of Words in 2022!

I know, AH- NOTHER end of the year email.

Not that I want to add to the pile…. but I did want to provide the chance to thank you all so deeply for being the greatest email recipients of any newsletter in the history of earth.

Thank you for a great start to something. Here’s to continuing to build a better place to learn and celebrate all things words!

We’ve already read two great books together and have many more on deck. In 2022 the books we’ll be reading are:

January: Holes

February: From the Desk of Zoe Washington 

March: From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

April: Poetry (trust me, you’ll like it)

May: The Girl who Drank the Moon

June: James and the Giant Peach

July: The Wild Robot

August: Wonder

September: The House on Mango Street 

October: A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

And you can find all of these titles on Bookshop.

You'll also be getting interviews from author and book store owner Emma Straub, the Reading Bug Podcast, and MORE!

But as always, I would like to hear from YOU. Who would YOU like me to interview? What books are YOU reading? What resources do YOU want more of?

I would be remiss if I didn’t tell you how grateful I would be if you shared For the Love of Words with friends and family. Telling someone about it is the best way to spread the love, to spread the word, and the love of words!

And lastly, if you are interested in getting access to all posts and archives of all past posts, consider becoming a paid subscriber. It’s the best way to support this community of learners. All January annual subscriptions are 50% off. And for every paid subscription, I will donate one to an underserved student.

Thank you endlessly for being here. Let us clink pens to another year of reading and writing together!

With gratitude,

Olivia (the lover of words)
