DS2 will be 15 in March, and has just started Year 10, the beginning of his GSCE years.
He has few interests, other than the Wii/computer/TV, although he does like to read when he has a good book. (And when pushed into it by me!)
But most of the books he has are a little on the childish side now, and I think he's definitely ready for something more 'adult' - but equally I don't want to try and give him something too difficult.
I remember reading Animal Farm at this age, and it made a huge impression on me - and I went on to devour 1984 and Down and Out in Paris and London.
So, lovely well-read MNetters - what authors and/or titles would you recommend for him?
