Noughts & Crosses

 Malorie Blackman 

Two young people are forced to make a stand in this thought-provoking look at racism and prejudice in an alternate society. Sephy is a Cross — a member of the dark-skinned ruling class. Callum is a Nought — a “colourless” member of the underclass who were once slaves to the Crosses

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry 

Rachel Joyce

“Not much ever happens to Harold Fry, a former brewery manager who lives in comfortable retirement in a neat little suburb on the south coast. It takes an unexpected letter to spur him out of his chair. Queenie Hennessy, an old colleague whom he has not thought about in years, has written from a hospice in Berwick-upon-Tweed to explain that she has cancer and has little time to live. Disturbed by the news, Harold composes a brief, sympathetic response and sets out to deliver it – by hand. And on foot.”

The Help

Kathryn Stockett

Minny and Aibleen are to colored maids living in Jackson, Mississippi in 1962. Together they both have their own special tales to tell. Skeeter is not like the other women Aibleen and Minny are used to; Skeeter doesn’t believe that the help should have their own bathroom outside, or that they should be treated differently to any other women.
