12. The Elephant Tree by R.D. Ronald
Featuring a mystery, a detective, and a series of down and out young adults like the ones your high schooler is struggling never to become but are interesting to read about, Ronald’s novel touches on topics like drug use, criminal activity, and socoiopathy, so you’ll want to be sure to make yourself available to your teenager afterward for debriefing and conversation about all that heavy stuff.
