The Martian
Young adult · age 15+ · 1020L · 2011
A genuine page-turner about solving problems with science and ingenuity; the heavy profanity and occasional sexual humor are a real gate, but a sharp 14+ reader who loves STEM will not put it down.
Project Hail Mary
Nonfiction · 1050L · 2021
A rare adult novel that works for smart middle-graders—witty, scientifically rigorous, and fundamentally about problem-solving and connection; the profanity and mild peril are worth it for kids hungry to see real thinking on the page.
Cheshire Crossing
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 850L
A sharp, queer-affirming remix that respects its source material while asking three iconic heroines to rewrite their own stories—best for readers who love both literary reference and genuine stakes.
