It is hard to find the right book for a teen! I have been running a teen book club at The Story Room for 5 years now and I am often surprised by the reaction to books I choose. They loved books I wasn’t sure anyone would like and hated some award winning books! So here is a list of the books we read together that they said they loved:
Year 9 female: After the Fire – Will Hill
Bone Jack – Sara Crowe
One of us is Lying – Karen M McManus
The Pearl – John Steinbeck
Year 8 female: I am Malala – Malala Yousafzai
The Tulip Touch
Girl Missing – Sophie McKenzie
Year 7 female: Bone Jack – Sara Crowe
Year 7 female: – We Come Apart – Sarah Crossan
Year 7 male: We Come Apart – Sarah Crossan
Year 9 female: One of us is Lying – Karen M McManus
Year 8 male: Once – Morris Gleitzman
Happy Reading!
