The author of the book I am reading, Sharon Draper has several other books, and is a well established author. some of her works are Just Another Hero and Panic. the other books she has put out are more of "The Hero's Journey" plotline books, and are more traditional in style. These books have a call to action , then there is some sort of adventure or task to complete, then at the end, everything is returned to normal, or at least everything ends happy for most people.  The book I am reading, Out of my Mind is a "w" plot book, where there are several rising and falling actions, but each one is critical to the story.

Another novel Draper wrote, Panic, is a story about a fifteen year old girl who goes missing at the mall. As her friends try to figure it all out, their own stories and social lives unfold, and it all leads
to an epic conclusion. I suggest this book if you like out of my mind because they both deal with kids  and their problems that they have while developing.
