I am planning to gift 13 books to my son – as he gets into his teenage.
He is turning (13 in a month’s time! Yaay!!)
He likes reading and has largely done Tintin, Asterix, Harry Potter, Narnia.
He hasn’t yet started fiction – but is open to getting to read such.
He liked Murder in Orient Express (movie) – so, am planning to add mystery to the list.
He is just getting his first taste of Science Fiction – and has read The Body Problem and is now reading The Dark Forest.
Pls help me curate a book list for him – that we can give him for his birthday.
Just want to keep age appropriate stuff for a 13-14 year old
Here’s some that I have thought of –
And Then There Were None
The Mysterious affair at Syles
To Kill a Mockingbird – a bit of profanity, but beyond that I think it will be lovely book for him to read.
Catcher in the Rye – same!
Kane and Able – would it be okay for him to read this at his age
Not a Penny More, Not a Penny less – any other on Jeffrey Archer?
Pls suggest

I think And Then There Were None would be a great pick.
Would also recommend:
Hatchet by Gary Paulson (if he hasn’t read it already)
The Underland Chronicles by Suzanne Collin’s (first book is Gregor the Overlander)
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
