| The Drowned Cities by Paolo Bacigalupi "It shows a very possible future of America and is very vivid." -- Kylee |
| The Boy Who Dared by Susan Campbell Bartoletti "It is a fictional story about a real historical figure that most people don't know about. This book was inspirational to me." -- Abrah |
| A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah "We usually do not see the horrors that go on or have gone on in third world countries or countries in war. This book educates the reader on what went on during Sierra Leone's civil war." -- Ernesto |
| The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken "It provided an interesting (and more than a little horrifying) story of what could happen to our country in the future. The characters were equally likeable and distainable. This book's ending and climax provided to be more surprising than that of a mystery I recently read." -- Liam |
| Because of Mr. Terupt by Rob Buyea "It is such a sweet story. This story is for everyone. I like how the class doesn't like Mr. Terupt at first but then he means the world to them. Overall I definitely recommend this AMAZING book." -- Lizet |
| The Eye of Minds by James Dashner "It is what the technology can become, but with a little bit of mystery and action." -- Kylee |
| Fear Itself by Matt Fraction "It had a good plot and wonderful art. I am usually a DC fan but I thoroughly enjoyed this title." -- Nathan |
| Still Alice by Lisa Genova "It really opens your eyes to Alzheimer's disease, and the readers get to see it through the perspective of the actual victim rather than the caregiver's. It was emotional so if you bawl easily with books, keep a tissue at bay…" -- Deniz |
| Light by Michael Grant "It's full of excitement and action. This is also the sixth and last book in the series. There were many suspenseful moments and cliffhangers that I couldn't stop reading! However, there are some gory details, in my opinion they made the story better, but if you're sensitiveto that it may not be for you." -- Jocelyn |
| Whispers at Moonrise by C.C. Hunter "It is an amazing story filled with suspense, thrills, excitement, and includes more than one love story." -- Jessica |
| Throne of Glass by Sarah Maas "This book is an action book written by a female that does not rely soley on love interests to carry the plot. Simply a fasinating read." -- Kate |
| Unwind by Neal Shusterman "I recommend this book because it really makes you think and shows the growth and journey of three people who end up together and try to stop the government. This book is good for you if you enjoyed The Maze Runner series." -- Ellie |
| Nimona by Noelle Stevenson "The plot was great. The author managed to make it begin with comedy and slowly morph it into an adventure story." -- Nathan |
