Recommendations for Students:
Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds
I love this book! When the main character's brother is murdered, he has to decide whether to take revenge. He is literally haunted by the violence of the neighborhood he grew up in.
Fruits Basket by Natsuki Takaya
Tohru is a hard working student who's at the end of her luck- she is homeless and working to support herself going to highschool- when she finds herself keeping a secret for a wealthy family whose members are all possessed by the animals of the chinese zodiac.
Fortunately, the Milk by Neil Gaiman
This is a genuinely funny shaggy dog story where a father's explanation for how it took him so long to get milk from the store turns into an adventure across space and time.
