As we embark on our Literature Circle unit, we want to give you a chance to preview the literary options available to you in this unit. We know that great literature has the capacity to open up new worlds, inspire a capacity for empathy, and allow for conversations to consider multiple points of view in a variety of settings. We also know that great literature also helps build a foundation for college, career, and life readiness. As you explore these novels, be sure to check out the summaries, content, professional reviews, and THS student reviews. And as you decide which ones you most want to read, be sure to consider not only the plots and characters, but also which novels might challenge you as both a reader and a person. And happy reading!
