Try one of these senior fiction reads:
Mara Carlyle’s senior year is going as normally as could be expected, until—wa-bam!—fellow senior Katelyn Ogden explodes during third period pre-calc.
Katelyn is the first, but she won’t be the last teenager to blow up without warning or explanation. As the seniors continue to pop like balloons and the national eye turns to Mara’s suburban New Jersey hometown, the FBI rolls in and the search for a reason is on.
With literal spontaneous explosion (and resulting mess). This absurd humour is the perfect stress breaker between exams.
As darkness falls after sunset, the corelings rise—demons who possess supernatural powers and burn with a consuming hatred of humanity. For hundreds of years the demons have terrorized the night, slowly culling the human herd that shelters behind magical wards—symbols of power whose origins are lost in myth and whose protection is terrifyingly fragile.
Like A Game of Thrones - only better! [I have been a fan of GoT since it was first published and I thought that series would never be beaten! - Mrs Kelleher]
Aron Ralston's account of his six days trapped in one of the most remote spots in America, and how one inspired act of bravery brought him home.
With scant water and little food, no jacket for the painfully cold nights, and the terrible knowledge that he'd told no one where he was headed, he found himself facing a lingering death -- trapped by an 800-pound boulder 100 feet down in the bottom of a canyon.
This is not for the feint hearted!
Saving Jazz by Kate McCaffreyJasmine Lovely has it all – the looks, the grades, the friends. But when a house party spins out of control, Jazz discovers what can happen when your mistakes go viral ...
Instead of being told by the victims point of view, this is about the offender. Who is she? What was she thinking? and what happened to her after the fallout?
Confronting. Hard to put down.
