The Odyssey by Homer
The Odyssey by Homer, is a book that I severely disliked. This book is one that is forced upon high school students, either through short summaries or having to read it word for word.

It's summer, but snow is falling in Tokyo. Actually, it's not snow. It's ash. Ash fills the air, strange creatures of shadow stalk the streets, and a boy with a mysterious book struggles desperately to save his little sister from a unknown illness as the world ends.
City Spies by James Ponti
This book is about international spies, MI16, and hackers. It is fast paced with action scenes and found family. I absolutely loved the way the characters interacted with each other and their handler Mother. The main character Sara is funny, smart and has an incredible sense of justice.
RENEGADES BY MARISSA MEYER
Renegades is a great read, especially if you like Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir! It has caped villains and superheroes with complicated backstories. It includes a very complicated love triangle between two heroes, with a dash of enemies to lovers. The main character Nova, is very interesting.

His father, a great optimist to many degrees, believed that the world would be saved by superheroes. However, David's dad got brutally murdered by one of the heroes he believed in, prompting David to seek out superhero hunters and join their forces.

A life he dreams of leaving behind by becoming a kafna.
