[aisle] YA Non-Trauma - English III texts

[Carolyn Roys]

Ben Phillippe’s new book is also great and the characters are older.

We have had great success with lit circles in our English III classes the last couple of years, but as we are looking for some new titles to add this year, we want to provide a couple of options that are not based in traumatic experiences (per a few students' feedback requesting options that "aren't depressing"). I'm currently reading Happily Ever Afters by Elise Bryant which is wonderful so far and might be a good addition. We have used Au Revoir Crazy European Chick in a group in the past that needed something short and fast-paced. I was also thinking about Frankly in Love by David Yoon or Field Guide to the North American Teenager by Ben Phillippe.

Does anyone have any suggestions for other options? Students can currently choose from several titles the most popular of which are: The Hate U Give, All American Boys, Challenger Deep, The Serpent King, Turtles All the Way Down, and Speak.
