I would suggest Dear Martin by Nic Stone. It is popular in my high school with reluctant readers because it is compelling and a manageable length.

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.

Searching for an interesting and engaging novel for senior English that covers this theme and essential question:



“Discovering the Self”

Essential Question: How does the world around us contribute to our sense of self?



This would be for a general ELA class with many reluctant readers.



Would you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance:)
