I Am the Cheese. (Robert Cormier)

This was an amazing book, just very hard to get your head wrapped around it. A boy is riding his bike to visit his father at the hospital. Another boy (or is it the same one?) is being interrogated/getting his memory back. The boy on the bike has a normal life, and it seems the boy in the room knows about the boy on the bike. It turns out the boy on the bike (Adam Farmer) doesn't have a very normal life, and everything is revealed at the end. Something I really liked about this book is that it ends with the same paragraph it starts with. This book was, like I said, really complicated, and even if you read it two or three times, I doubt you'll understand it. I sure didn't! The title might seem a bit strange now, but it makes way more sense at the end.

Peter Pan (J.M. Barrie)

You know the story,but the original is much more complicated than the movie. For example, did you know that captain Jas. Hook has blue eyes except when he is about to kill someone? Or that whenever  a child says "I don't believe in fairies" a fairy drops dead? This book was very good. It was a bit hard to read, because it was all in old fashioned English. I really liked that the Neverland is in all our heads, but slightly different in everyone else's head.

Hook's Revenge (Heidi Shulz)

This was a really good book. It's all about Captain James Hook the dread pirate's daughter, who lives with her grandfather on her mother's side, going to a finishing school but ending up in the neverland getting revenge for her father, who was killed/eaten by the dreaded neverland crocodile. Oh, there's also that annoying flying boy and his mean little fairy. Why does he keep making that annoying "Cock-a-doodle-doo" noise?

Connect the Stars (Marisa de los Santos and David Teague)

Definitely in my top fifty, which is saying a lot. I loved this book. From two seventh graders perspectives, a boy with a photographic memory and a girl who can tell whenever anyone lies. They both get sent to a wilderness camp as "memory boy" and someone who doesn't trust her fellow human beings, and come out completely different.
