Nick’s book of choice is LONE SURVIVOR! Nick says, “I picked this book because it is a true story and I had seen the movie. It is the first-hand account of 4 Navy seals who are a part of Operation Redwing. I really like Luttrell’s writing style-- the story is vivid and it is...

Love what Halle says about our next book, HEY, KIDDO! Reading is about building sympathy, feeling compassion, and learning about others! #hallerocks One thing Halle forgets to mention is that this book is a graphic novel!

they are chosen to be the next Scythes (people who are incharge of population control). I really like the characters in this story and how they show corruption and work to overcome it. I also like the aspect of “vigilante justice” that the kids serve. The book is unique in that

Curtis is a pretty big fan of SCYTHE! Curtis says: “I was drawn to the philosophical aspects of a world with no death, as dying is essential to our understanding of what it means to be human. This is a story about two kids who grew up in an Utopia without death and crime and

“I picked THE POET X because I was interested in seeing how a book could tell a story with just poems. This book is about a teenager who is figuring out who she is and poetry is an important part of that process for her. The narrator struggles with her identity, her family...

Our next book rec comes from Meg for THE POET X:
