Today, Mrs. Nicolay’s Literature students at Thomasville High School had the privilege of meeting bestselling author Shelby Van Pelt, whose debut novel, REMARKABLY BRIGHT CREATURES, is not only a New York Times bestseller but also a selection of the Read with Jenna Today Show book club.

Her candid discussion about the writing process resonated deeply with our students, fostering a lively Q&A session that was both engaging and insightful.
