Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

I personally have read: Laurie Halse Anderson: Speak, Catalyst as well as M.T. Anderson: Feed.

But personally I would have to go with the Book Thief because I have heard it is a good book, and it was on my list to read. I wish I could be of more help to you. Happy School Year!
