One of my annual summer goals is to read the OBOB books for the upcoming season. I like to have a general understanding of each book so I can be a better coach.
Here is the 2018-19 list. I have read the titles in bold.
6th to 8th Grade Division
- Absolutely Truly by Heather Vogel Frederick
- Avenging the Owl by Melissa Hart
- The Body in the Woods by April Henry
- Cryptid Hunters by Roland Smith
- Doll Bones by Holly Black
- The Gauntlet by Karuna Riazi
- Ghost by Jason Reynolds
- I Will Always Write Back by Caitlin Alifirenka & Martin Ganda
- The Luck Uglies by Paul Durham
- My Seventh-Grade Life in Tights by Brooks Benjamin
- Restart by Gordon Korman
- Revenge of the Witch by Joseph Delaney
- Small as an Elephant by Jennifer Richard Jacobson
- The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan
- The Wishing Spell by Chris Colfer
- Wolf Hollow by Lauren Wolk
It’s been a weird sort of summer – and short – so I have only reached 50%. Fortunately, I don’t start talking to kids about it until October and the battles don’t begin until January, so I still have ample time to read the other 50%.
