2010 Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Readers

Mac, Carrie. (2009). Jacked. Orca Book Pub.


Zane is working his normal shift at the local gas station. He gets hungry and sets out to get some food. But before he could get there, an insane masked carjacker jumps in the passenger’s seat and holds a gun to Zane’s head. A million things rush into his head. Should he try and get pulled over? Should he try and grab the gun from the crazy man? Then all of a sudden the carjacker makes a weird request; “take me to the hospital”.

I love this book! From the beginning to the end, it is full of action packed events that keep you wanting to read. I’m really starting to like YA mystery/action books. You can read so many of them because they are shorter than adult books.
