Listless Monday, Boarding School Edition

Listless Monday was inspired by both Amanda at A Bookshelf Monstrosity's feature Books by Theme and Court at Once Upon a Bookshelf's Listed feature.  Be sure to check out their lists!

I'm a bit slow posting this, since school started weeks ago, but I figured I would post this list of boarding school books anyway.  


Boarding School Edition

Academy 7 by Anne Osterlund
Alex Van Helsing series by Jason Henderson
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
Ballad by Maggie Stiefvater
Bloomability by Sharon Creech
Breathless by Jessica Warman (suggested by Kelly J.)
The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart
Evernight Series by Claudia Gray
Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter
Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray
Guardian of the Dead by Karen Healey
Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
Haven by Kristi Cook
Hex Hall series by Rachel Hawkins
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta
A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Looking for Alaska by John Green
The Miles Between by Mary Pearson

  1. I love books that are set at boarding schools. A great one is Prep, by Curtis Sittenfeld. I recently read The Twisted Thread, by Charlotte Bacon, and that one was great too. I will have to look up some of the books you listed!

  2. So, I like these lists but I always want a recommendation. Say I happen to love boarding school books. Which one, or two, would you recommend?

  3. I know that Jessica Warman's WHERE THE TRUTH LIES takes place at a boarding school, and I believe her first book, BREATHLESS, does as well.

    Jenny, I haven't read all of them, but I enjoyed The Disreputable History and I really loved Ballad.
