Fire with Fire (Book II Trilogy of Burn for Burn)

Fire with Fire Lillia, Kat, and Mary had the perfect plan. Work together in secret to take down the people who wronged them. But things didn’t exactly go the way they’d hoped at the Homecoming Dance. Not even close. For now, it looks like they got away with it. All they have to do is move on and pick up the pieces, forget there was ever a pact. But there is something seriously  wrong  with sweet, little Mary. If she can’t control her anger, she’s sure someone will get hurt.

Educated by Tara Westover

Educated Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent.

Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

Jika Great Alone merupakan karya fiksi, Educated adalah sebuah memoir dari seorang wanita yang dibesarkan oleh keluarga eksentrik dan buku ini merupakan

Warlight by Michael Ondaatje

Warlight In a narrative as beguiling and mysterious as memory itself--shadowed and luminous at once--we read the story of fourteen-year-old Nathaniel, and his older sister, Rachel. In 1945, just after World War II, they stay behind in London when their parents move to Singapore, leaving them in the care of a mysterious figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and they grow both more convinced and less concerned as they come to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women joined by a shared history of unspecified service during the war, all of whom seem, in some way, determined now to protect, and educate (in rather unusual ways) Rachel and Nathaniel. But are they really what and who they claim to be? And what does it mean when the siblings' mother returns after months of silence without their father, explaining nothing, excusing nothing? A dozen years later, Nathaniel begins to uncover all that he didn't know and understand in that time, and i
