The Serpent King by Jeff Zentner

4.0

On the surface this book looks like any other troubled high schooler book, which the plot is a bit like that. However, something about this book just draws you in and you want to keep reading. Maybe it is because you really want the best for these three friends and you know they have it in them. Great character development and writing as so much of this book could've gotten very cheesy and predictable.
Three friends starting their senior year of high school and moving through that year trying to figure out what is next. They are the misfits, one with a great home life and the other two without. I highly recommend this book, but make sure you have tissues handy!
