5) It’s Kind Of A Funny Story (Ned Vizzini)                                   (5 of 10)

In this story, a guy named Craig Gilner has been accepted to the Executive Pre-Professional High School in Manhattan. This acceptance leads him to be pretty excited for a chance to be on the fast track for achieving the general successes in life.

However, when he joins the program and becomes surrounded by equally or even more gifted students, Craig suddenly starts to question his own gifts and he begins falling apart.

The book is ideal for all those Slytherins who put a lot of pressure on themselves to kick everyone else’s ass on a daily basis.
