Romeo & Juliet, William Shakespeare
Whale Talk, Chris Crutcher
The Outsiders, Susan E. Hinton
Breaking Rank takes the basic plot of Shakespeare's most identifiable and teenager-oriented play and updates and alters it to properly fit into a modern day High School. While the specific details about the Clan and the mainstream group and either on the unbelievable or simply underdeveloped, the plot remains as engaging, although not quite as heartbreaking.
There are many times in Breaking Rank where the reader learns that things are not quite as simple as they initially thought they were. Do these complications make this book one that give Breaking Rank an older audience?
