[ISLMA-Share] Abe Lincoln List recommendations

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I have personally read and highly recommend the following for 8th graders:
For creepy or high action or suspense-
Illuminae (don’t be fooled by the supposed length as it is very visual and reads really really fast)
Ms. Marvel
Wolf by Wolf

For history or social justice themes-
All We Have Left

For an advanced 8th grade reader-
Radium Girls
Born a Crime


Hope that helps!

Good afternoon!
I always go through some of the Abe Lincoln-nominated titles to my graduating 8th graders in May. I am not as familiar with the titles this year as I have been in the past. What are some good ones that I should be sure to discuss?? I own and love The Hate U Give and Scythe. Any others I shouldn't miss out on sharing?!?!?
Thanks, everyone!
:)
