Jack Cherry is reading Norman Mailer's classic boxing book, The Fight:- This book is about Muhammed Ali and the lead-up to the fight with George Foreman. I like this book because I find the way it is written interesting. Mailer is a very descriptive writer, and so we really see what Ali's life was like, both the good and the bad.

TY Book Recommendations 3
Shannen Keogan recommends Ben Shephard's After Daybreak:- This is a powerful and dramatic book about the liberation of Belsen in 1945. Bergen-Belsen was a concentration camp during World War II, and in this book Shephard uncovers unbelievable scenes of horror. It also includes the actions and reactions of the British soldiers who discovered such a humanitarian disaster. This excellent and informative account is a very difficult read for younger people, but anyone with an interest in what happened in World War II should without doubt read it.
