As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Bridge of Clay by Markus Zusak
It's marketed as Young Adult, and that may be but I think it for adults as well. I don't think I'll get for my high school library. It's good and read it but I don't think it will be widely popular. It's told in different flashbacks by the narrator, one of the brothers. The story meanders through out time, not in a straight time line. It's a fine book and the handling of grief done by the boys and their father and later another death is built around the story. It reminds me of Outsiders meets Party of Five.
