Cline, Emma
The girls (Psychological fiction)
Northern California, during the violent end of the 1960s. At the start of summer, a lonely
and thoughtful teenager, Evie Boyd, sees a group of girls in the park, and is immediately
caught by their freedom, their careless dress, their dangerous aura of abandon. Soon, Evie is
in thrall to Suzanne, a mesmerizing older girl, and is drawn into the circle of a soon-to-be
infamous cult and the man who is its charismatic leader. Hidden in the hills, their sprawling
ranch is eerie and run down, but to Evie, it is exotic, thrilling, charged--a place where she
feels desperate to be accepted. As she spends more time away from her mother and the
rhythms of her daily life, and as her obsession with Suzanne intensifies, Evie does not realize
she is coming closer and closer to unthinkable violence.

The hunger games (Dystopian fiction/Science fiction)
Could you survive on your own, in the wild, with everyone fighting against you? Twentyfour are forced to enter. Only the winner survives. In the ruins of a place once known as
North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying
districts. Each year, the districts are forced by the Capitol to send one boy and one girl
between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the Hunger Games, a brutal and
terrifying fight to the death -- televised for all of Panem to see. Survival is second nature for
sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who struggles to feed her mother and younger sister by
secretly hunting and gathering beyond the fences of District 12. When Katniss steps in to
take the place of her sister in the Hunger Games, she knows it may be her death sentence. If
she is to survive, she must weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

A green and ancient light (Fantasy)
"A gorgeous fantasy in the spirit of Pan's Labyrinth and John Connolly's The Book of Lost
Things. Set in a world similar to our own, during a war that parallels World War II, A Green
and Ancient Light is the stunning story of a boy who is sent to stay with his grandmother for
the summer in a serene fishing village. Their tranquility is shattered by the crash of a bulletriddled enemy plane, the arrival of grandmother's friend Mr. Girandole--a man who knows
the true story of Cinderella's slipper--and the discovery of a riddle in the sacred grove of
ruins behind grandmother's house. In a sumptuous idyllic setting and overshadowed by the
threat of war, four unlikely allies learn the values of courage and sacrifice"

Hosseini, Khaled
The kite runner (Afghanistan-Fiction)
An epic tale of fathers and sons, of friendship and betrayal, that takes us from
Afghanistan in the final days of the monarchy to the atrocities of the present day. The
unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy Afghan
youth and the son of his father's servant, The Kite Runner is a beautifully crafted novel set in
a country that is in the process of being destroyed. It is about the power of reading, the price
of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption. It is also about the power of fathers over sons:
their love, their sacrifices, and their lies.
