The Graveyard Book
The Graveyard Book is a creepy, touching, and amazingly-written story. Bod lives in the graveyard after his family is killed. The ghosts of the graveyard raise him and teach him his life lessons. When the man who killed his family comes looking for him, Bod must find the courage to face his fears. The story may be tough to get through (there are parts that slow you down a bit), but it is worth sticking out. I cried my eyes out at the end.
