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.

Armageddon Summer

by Jane Yolen & Bruce Coville

I read a few of Yolen's books and always found them to be interesting, but borderline boring. I expected the same with this book. While it wasn't "high adventure" or full of twists and turn, it was worth finishing. The end made the book worth reading. I realized that no matter what life throws at you (or you bring upon yourself), you can endure, recover, and go on. And, be a better person for it. A great tale of two young people caught up in a religious fervor. Great for 12+
