“This book follows a girl and the story of her difficult life and family, including all of the hardships she faced. I liked this book because it featured an inside look on a real life story, and I would recommend it for others who want to know the realistic factors in life for those who aren’t so lucky.”   
-Jordana Kagan, Class of 2017

Jeannette Walls' The Glass Castle

“Mitch Albom is a work-absorbed man who has no time for family or friends. However, when he hears that his favorite college professor is dying, he immediately starts visiting him every Tuesday, which is what they used to do in college. It is a book that really hit home and, though short, it packed a large impact in a way that you can connect.”  
–Evan Marinofsky, Class of 2017

Mitch Albom's "Tuesdays with Morrie"

“To say this is a love story would over-simplify it. To say it’s set in the 80s would give you the wrong impression. To say it’s a beautifully-written story that perfectly articulates the overwhelming experience of falling in love… Well, that’s a step in the right direction. One thing that makes Eleanor & Park such a great read is that everything is unexpected, from the events themselves to the way the author describes them. I found it totally engrossing and moving, and I sincerely couldn’t recommend it highly enough.”  
-Señorita Rizzo, Spanish Teacher

Rainbow Rowell's "Eleanor and Park"

“This is a book simultaneously as straightforward and as complex as its title. It follows a young woman seeking to define herself in a year of her life defined only by change. Her struggle to figure out who she is, how she fits in, and what she wants out of life is relatable for many high school students asking these same questions. Her story is poignant, funny, heartbreaking, and hard to put down.”   
-Ms. Giffune, English Teacher

Meg Medina's "Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass"
