Lord of the Flies by William Golding

At the start of the next world war, a plane of young schoolboys crashes on an uncharted island. Stranded, the boys find themselves without adult supervision and no rules to follow. At first, the boys rejoice over their newfound freedoms. They realize that they're far away from everyone and everything. And that means they can do anything they want. Anything. But when the order that they had collapses and they start hearing strange noises at night, some of the boys start to realize that the dream of having an island all to themselves has turned into a nightmare. 

What I liked most about this book was how close it strayed to reality. The decisions that each character made throughout the book were incredibly realistic and true to their character (as well as their age). I also enjoyed the thrill of not knowing what was next or if the boys would ever be rescued. If you choose to read this book, it will have your heart and mind racing. The whole time that you're reading, you'll be asking yourself: "What would I do?"
