For Grade 8 and Older

Recommended by L.M., "I really like this book because it's a heart-tugging story that's technically, not just a story. It was real. Everything that happened in the book happened and some of it was tragic. It's also quite the primary source about World War II and some of the effects of it."

Recommended by L.Q., "A challenging book full of fun but for older readers that can read harder texts."

Recommended by S.B., "This is my favorite book because of how detailed it is and how interesting the plot is, as well as the character development. It's very easy to get hooked up and difficult to put it down. It's also 1 in 4 books so if you enjoy it you could always continue the series."

Recommended by R.L., "If you love the Hunger Game series you are going to LOVE this book/series just as much! Or, if you are dystopian fan or are interested in trying this book out, you will NOT be disappointed! Highly recommended!"

Recommended by H.D., "It's like traveling to a different universe."

Recommended by R.E., "I like this book because I couldn't stop reading it, I was always on the edge of my seat never putting that book down. It was definitely one of the best books I've ever read."

Recommended by A.A., "It has a great plot and many plot twists. My book is filled with screams, cries and smiles. I've even thrown the book because of one plot twist. You get attached to the characters really quickly. I started reading in January and by the end of the year I saw many people reading it,"

Recommended by A.S.

Recommended by K.A., "It is a good mystery and it is in a series of 3 books. Then there is a book that is the backstory . When I was reading this book I could not get my eyes off it and I slept late that week because I was reading it and it was so good."

Recommended Non-Fiction

Recommended by A.M., "Reveals useful business practices used by some of the largest corporations."

Series Recommendations

Recommended by G.H., "I like this book because I am a fan of dystopian books, also adventure survival and this fits both categories. It's really sweet how Thomas helps everyone."

Recommended by E.T. and A.A.  A.A. says, "This book hooks the reader, and takes them on a journey through a relatable and funny Percy Jackson's perspective."A comedy filled adventures greek mythology book has me wrapped around its pages. Every inch of the book was written so perfectly. The plots are beyond my expectations. It's been my personal favourite since grade 4."

Recommended by T.T.

Recommended by A.T., "I love this book because it has tons of twists and turns, all until the very last page. This was the first book that I read of this genre, murder mysteries and suspense, that made me love it so much."

Recommended by C.F., "It has magic and it's fun."

Recommended by L.S., "This book is so good because it is (in some ways) relatable. The main character struggles with her day to day life and isn't sure about her family life either. But, when her life changes forever, it keeps the reader captivated and not wanting to put the book down. I strongly recommend this book, and, if you do read it, there are ten more books still to read! Happy reading!"

Recommended by M.P., "I like it because it always keeps me on my toes because of the plot, i also like it because it's a good spy book."

Recommended by M.A.

Recommended by M.B., "I like this book because it has a very strong message about how feelings can affect people, as well as how the characters can help with the story and how he is the only one who truly has feelings."

Recommended by L.A., "It's really funny and the art style is cartoony which helps it look nice."
