How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

Newes from the Dead

by Mary Hooper

Here's the caption on the cover: "She was dead. And minutes away from being dissected. Then she woke up." That pretty much says it all. During the 1600's dissection was the only way doctors and scientists could learn about the human body. Just as today, they were intrigued by how the body and brain worked, and wanted to know all they could. Anne Green made choices that, through "the law", led to her death...almost. Great book!!
