My top 2015 contemporary middle grade books

I’ve found that word of mouth is the most reliable way to find books for my kids and myself to read. This is my video roundup of the best contemporary, realistic middle-grade books (for reading age 9 to 12) that I read during 2015. Not all of them were published during this year, but they were new to me.

I’d love to know if I’ve missed any stars here. What were your top 2015 contemporary middle grade reads from this year? Let me know in the comments below, or if you like, you can follow me on Goodreads.
