AUTHOR (Flynn, Gilian) BOOK TITLE: Gone Girl 
BYLINE: Ms. Bonnie Maye, ESHS Teacher 
Sucks you into the book from the first couple of paragraphs. Then you get rolling and used to the format and WHAM -- be sure to stick with it and keep going -- it gets a bit slow in the middle, but then it picks right up so set aside some time for the run through the end.

Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson

AUTHOR (ANDERSON, LAURIE HALSE)
BOOK TITLE: Catalyse
BYLINE: Ms. Maye, Teacher
***
Written by the same author who wrote "Speak" and "Prom" a unique look at the life of a harried high school senior who learns there is more to life than receiving a college acceptance letter. An easy read, with some characters left a bit undeveloped -- possibly for a follow up? Entertaining, quick read.

Interesting look at the future using IM and lack of thinking to the extreme. Also talks about peer pressure and how far some people will go to fit in.

****

Excellent novel looking at life from a different perspective. Everything that seems upside right is now upside down and sideways. Easy read for any level - and has some information about glassblowing as well for those interested in crafts.
