I've heard this novel called "the first book that really held my attention in high school" again and again. Tears of a Tiger opens with a news clipping: a high school basketball star has just been killed in a drunk driving accident. The story that follows, told entirely through conversations, notes, journal entries, and homework assignments, deals with grief, the difficulty of communicating, basketball, family, guilt, prejudice, and Macbeth. Best for reluctant readers in 9th grade and up.
