Quaking by Kathryn Erskine
Goth girl Matt lives her life by simple rules: Stay under the radar, never go by Matilda (only Matt), and don't let anyone get too close. But everything changes when she moves in with a peaceful Quaker family in Pennsylvania. As the country fights a war in the Middle East, Matt fights her own personal war, battling bullies of her past and present and fighting to stand up for her belief in peace. Then violence erupts in town, and Matt finds that she will need to fight even harder to save the family she is starting to love.Mockingbird was written by Kathryn Erskine, who won the National Book Award for it. Seeing Red, The Absolute Value of Mike, and The Badger Knight are among her other works. She spent part of her youth in South Africa and grew up listening to Miriam Makeba's music. Africa, Mama!
