  Nonfiction Literature
  Over the course of your summer break, we ask that you read a nonfiction novel concerned with a social issue in anticipation of the upcoming school year...This reading assignment's objective is to expose students to nonfiction material written for
  young adult and college-level readers.
  ...
  We suggest choosing _one_ of the following novels as an alternative:
  Nickel and Dimed (Barbara Ehrenreiuch)
  Guns, Germs, and Steel (Jared Diamond)
  ...We suggest you read the novel twice....

  Look for the primary thesis in the beginning of the book; it should be revisited in the novel's concluding chapter.
