Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein
5.0

This was not an easy book to read (or, in my case, listen to), but it was a worthwhile one and held my attention the whole way. The characters really came to life for me, and there were several moments that literally made me gasp. I'd definitely recommend this to older teens as well as adults - it calls out the extremes of human behavior under some of the most stressful of circumstances.
