Changes

Another excellent coming-of-age story is [[The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie]], a wonderful read filled with hope, despair and humour in equal measures. Meanwhile, R J Palacio's [[Wonder by R J Palacio|Wonder]] is a beautiful book, with multiple marvellously genuine young characters combining to tell a gentle but mesmerising tale. For older teens, I would recommend [[In Bloom by Matthew Crow]] for an honest and life-affirming tale of two teens with cancer, filled with a plethora of great characters and surprisingly laugh-out-loud humour. Adults might appreciate [[Golden Boy by Abigail Tarttelin]].
