We have a group of avid readers in Teen Book Club. They read a wide variety of books – some for younger children and some for older teens – so I asked them what they had read over the summer that they would recommend to other readers and here is that list:
Girl Missing – Sophie MacKenzie
The Boy at the Back of the Class – Onjali Rauf
The London Eye Mystery – Siobhan O’Dowd
The Opposite of Always – Justin Reynolds
The Tattooist of Auschwitz – Heather Morris
The Hitchhikers’ Guide to The Galaxy – Douglas Adams
Holes – Louis Sachar
Stepping Stones – Louis Sachar
The Knife of Never Letting Go – Patrick Ness
The End of Time – Gavin Extence
Spies – Michael Friarn
Wonder – R.J Palacio
The Goldfish Boy – Lisa Thompson
The Blood Guard – Carter Roy
Boy 87 – Ele Fountain
Kensuke’s Kingdom – Michael Morpurgo
Please use caution when choosing books for young teens. I’m not a fan of censuring reading but some teen books can deal with very adult themes, so please choose according to your child’s maturity and sensitivity.
Happy Reading!
