How to Save a Life by Sara Zarr
4.0
I really enjoyed both Jill's and Mandy's voices/perspectives. I could fully relate to Jill, as my father died when I was 15. Her anger, lack of self-control, purposely ruining relationships are all understandable. Add to this that her mother wants to adopt a baby...and under unconventional circumstances! Mandy's home life is (luckily) foreign to me, so I was very interested to learn about it and her coping methods.
I think many students will identify with parts of the story and appreciate all of it.
