Category: Historical fiction

Fourteen-year-old Emily Pigbush suspects that her uncle is involved in body snatching. Meanwhile, her best friend's family is accused of plotting to kill Abraham Lincoln, and Emily is left unsure of whom she can trust. You won't be able to put this book down. It is incredibly creepy. Anne Rinaldi has a magical ability to keep you hooked throughout all her Historical fiction novels. Most of them feature a female protagonist but some of them are told by a male character. These books are so accesable to young adults and get students interested in history. I have read all of them but this one is one of my favorites. An Acquaintance with Darkness by Ann Rinaldi
