Prisoner B-3087 by Alan Gratz
5.0

This book is really intense and a lot more graphic than other holocaust books, so I would avoid this book if the Holocaust is a trigger for you, or if you have trouble reading about violence.

That being said, this reminded me a lot of Elie Wiesel’s “Night”. The reading level is a little lower, so I might give this to a teen with a lower reading level who is interested in this specific topic or period in history. (It’s actually shelved in the children’s section at my library system.) Alternately, it could be used as a substitute for “Night” in high school curriculum for students with lower reading levels (content and themes are very similar, but language and sentence structure is more digestible.)
