I read The Postcard this summer, and thought it was a GREAT read for 5-8 grades. It’s a fast-paced story that I didn’t want to put down! I am not a big mystery fan either, but this was satisfying!

An interesting list, many I have not heard of before, my vote would be for Bog Child by Siobhan Dowd.
