How to Breathe Underwater, I would say, is probably appropriate for a 6th grader as long as she isn't offended by strong language (namely the F word). The same can be said for We Are the Ghosts and All Our Worst Ideas, although All Our Worst Ideas does have a (non-graphic) intimate scene between two teenagers. Hope this helps!(less)

"Advanced Copy Review

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy.
