Cloud Cuckoo Land was one of the best books I read in 2024 and a brilliant start to the new year of the FOMO Book Club, which I run with my lovely friend ​⁠@GemofBooks. We read this in memory of our amazing friend ​⁠@AliceandtheGiantBookshelf who loved it and championed it so much. She said we would love it and she was so right - thank you, Alice.🤍 0:00 Intro: spoiler free 6:59 Spoiler-filled discussion 15:34 Final thoughts Check out Alice’s review here: https://youtu.be/j9xpLHOiHAQ?si=0mvcRAH0skYKiDXG Check out the live discussion Gemma and I had (HUGE SPOILERS): https://www.youtube.com/live/tc_bqX6kLLk?si=Ec2qYmbnxt8qiV4N 🛒GET THE BOOK*: £££ ONLINE DISCOUNT CODE£££ Use my ‘Books Please’ affiliate code SPREADBOOKJOY at checkout for 5% off your order: https//booksplea.se/ 🤍 Picture Book Reviews: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsDbySfTdpmgO1TA62MOuiMK09Q6WGd63&si=KakyeQwYajEfG7QB 🤍 Middle Grade Reviews: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsDbySfTdpmiG2l9EqiQaE3ixFF5R0J28&si=ZO7saocTd78DI2oR 🤍 Teen and YA Reviews: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsDbySfTdpmjx6wwIdJtMbJsnCFMI01Yx&si=DjnE1rsHftRb51wP ❤💌🗨 WEBSITES / EMAIL/SOCIAL MEDIA: All the links you need can be found in my bio and channel banner, including links to both the Discord Server and Goodreads Group for the FOMO Book Club 💌WANT FREE LESSON PLANS, TEACHING RESOURCES AND CHILDREN'S BOOK NEWS?
