Scythe, Thunderhead, Strange the Dreamer, Unearthed and I have been loving everything by Rose Ahdieh and I am re-reading the Shatter Me series in anticipation of a new book release:-)
Of course–I was actually clarifying because I thought maybe the series would be more appropriate for my voracious reader 12 year old daughter than I previously thought.
Wishtree, The Secret Sheriff of Sixth Grade, Beyond the Bright Sea, Well That Was Awkward, A Boy Called Bat
Insignificant events in life of cactus
The Mighty, Taking Sides, Wonder, A Long Walk to Water, Seedfolks, Facing the Lion, Promises to Keep, Daniel’s Story….not new, just favorites
Akata Witch and Akata Warrior by Nnedi Okorafor.

Is Shatter Me middle grade? I thought it was more YA.
@Kelly It is not for middle grade, but the post said middle school….
@Laurie , ahh, thanks.
@Kelly and I probably would make sure I knew my reader before recommending them:-)

Alan Gratz wrote several others. Code of Honor, Prisoner B-3087 and Projekt 1065 are all being passed around my room.
I can’t keep his books on my shelf…and I love it!
My after school book club voted for Projekt 1065 and today they are talking about Prisoner B-3087 for the next read. Love it!
I definitely need to read more of his books.
