OLDER FICTION
Kessler, Liz

Read Me like a Book

(4) YA Sophomore Ashleigh is inspired by (and soon, infatuated with) her English teacher Miss Murray, who sparks Ashleigh's sexuality crisis but is nevertheless a bright point in a year fraught with boyfriend pressures, best friend troubles, a pregnancy scare, and divorcing parents. Well-drawn characters and a contemplative tone that suits the subject matter help offset the preponderance of teen angst tropes.
