[aisle] book suggestion

*Serpent King* by Zentner
The son of a Pentecostal preacher faces his personal demons as he and his
two outcast friends try to make it through their senior year of high school
in rural Forrestville, Tennessee without letting the small-town culture
destroy their creative spirits and sense of self.

*Fantastic* book...but maybe overwhelming for reluctant readers because of
the length at 372pg.
