Jungle | 
pickThe Jungle tells the tale of a young boy named Mico in a Calais refugee camp. Pooja Puri manages to tell this tale of a devastating place and situation with a necessary light and hopefulness, without sacrificing realism. The balance of optimism and dark in this book is absolutely perfect. The characters are vibrant, engaging, and fully fleshed out. I loved both Mica and Leila. I would recommend The Jungle to anyone looking for an engaging read.
