Does anyone have any book recommendations for 6th graders? I haven't found any interesting books lately

Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions
pippin_5 pippin_5

You could try Divergent, The Hunger Games, Alex Rider, Keepers Of The Lost Cities, or Willa Of The Wood!
lovetoread26 lovetoread26

I would suggest The Hunger Games if you think you are an advanced reader, but if you would rather not read them yet then I suggest As Brave As You, Refugee, A Long Walk To Water, and The Boy Who Harnessed The Wind.

Hey guys! It’s Pippin_5 here! I just wanted to post my inspirational quote for the week a little earlier! Since there’s A LOT of great quotes in the KOTLC, I thought I would pick my favorite one and do that one instead of one by a famous person. Here it is: “It seems we’re attempting to drain the ocean with a leaking spoon. But even if that’s the case, we can either give up or we can continue taking it one leaking spoonful at a time.” -Mr. Forkle from KOTLC
bookfan2009 bookfan2009

Awesome quote! I really like the KOTLC series!
bsc bsc

Oh I like your idea! Here's another from Mr. Forkle. "Protect my moonlark."
roxanne3 roxanne3

I love KOTLC and you're right, there is so many good quotes in there :) You should do a funny Keefe quote next!!
