Answer 6

Wow, lol, I saw my entire list of book recommendations on there! Somebody actually pays attention to what I type :)

Anyway, Pete Hautmen (Godless) has written a bunch of other things that you may want to look into. The other ones of his that I've really liked were Sweetblood and All-in. You may want to check those out.

Also, Todd Strasser (Can't Get There From Here) has another book, Bootcamp, that's really good.

Street Pharm - Allison vanDiepen. It's about this 16 year old (I think) boy who's a drug dealer. I didn't expect to like that one, but it turned out to bee a pretty amazing book. Just beware, it's got a *lot* of F*** and things like that in it, so if that kind of thing bugs you, don't read it.

Also George Orwell's Animal Farm. It's a classic, it's short, and it's really good.
Happy Reading!
