The Kenston Forest Book Club is open to students in grades 8 - 12. The mission of the book club is to engage students in the discussion of current young adult literature while developing and honing critical thinking skills. The Book Club meets once a month for lunch in the library to discuss books read by members. The Book Club members assist with the school's Book Fairs, enjoy a Christmas party, and receive recognition during an end of school year award ceremony.

Students who read in high school may increase their SAT reading comprehension and vocabulary scores.

Feel free to create your own pages while keeping the focus on discussing books. The following are some typical questions for discussion:

Did you like the book? What is the book's message? How did you feel about the characters? In a movie version, who would play what parts? What did you think of the plot line development? What moral/ethical choices did the characters make? How authentic is the culture or era represented in the book? Why do you think the author wrote this? What is the author's most important message? Is there any moral responsibility that was abdicated?
