Below are favorites of our HS students in the genres you are seeking.
Because we're a grade 6-12 building, our HS students have access to books
targeting a younger audience, and they still love them as well as books
their own level.

*For sports*:
- anything by John Feinstein, Tim Green, Mike Lupica (even though these
don't target HS-aged kids per se).
- any sports biography of a popular athlete

*For adventure*:
LONG-RUNNING FAVORITES:
- Erin Bowman's *Taken* trilogy (HS level)
- Michael Carroll's *Superhuman *series (grade 7 & up)
- John Flanagan *Ranger's Apprentice *(grade 5 & up)
- anything by Alan Gratz
- Neil Shusterman's *Scythe* series (grade 7 & up - really more sci fi than
adventure, but I included it because it's so popular)
- Lex Thomas' *Quarantine *series  (HS level)
- Dan Wells' *Partials *series (HS level)
