I am finished with Lyddie by Katherine Paterson and I could not read it fast enough! It is so good! I love the character of Lyddie and I feel like I understand her struggles, despite how different my life is from her's.
For my students' 8th grade pre-ap summer reading choices, the students can choose Uprising by Margaret Peterson Haddix (same author as the Shadow Children Series). I HIGHLY recommend it! If you like Uprising, you'll enjoy Lyddie as well. The struggles are similar but you don't necessarily feel like you can predict the ending of one just because you read the other.
