What is a good book that contains lots of fighting in in for a senior high school student?

Sadie C asked:


I tutor a Korean foreign exchange student that hates to read. I picked out the book Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson and he just LOVED it! I want for him to continue to love reading. He is required to read another book by a teacher before school ends. What other book would be a good one for him? He told me, he likes to read about fighting/action.

good book

good book

The Outsiders is an easy, fairly short read. It’s about a group of kids in a gang. Theres lots of fighting between the “greasers” and “socials(soc’s”). There’s also a murder, but I don’t want to give too much away.

The sequel to that is “That was Then, This is Now”, it’s also about gangs, just a different one in the area who tend to be a little more violent.
I read these two books in 7th grade, they are very easy to read, but they still are two of my favorite books.
