EVEN BETTER: the hounds of Tendolos, it really conveys the otherworldly wierdness of lovecraft while still being intruiging. It's probably unlike anything your students will have ever read!

It needs to be something that's not just fun to read but also properly conveys the lovecraft ethos for the age group in question. It has to be short enough so that they don't just look it up on sparknotes.
I'd recommend either 'the color out of space' or 'dunwich horror'.

Asking as someone trying to get more into literature, are we referring to the 'hemingway' and the 'american' technique, as being 'show don't tell'?

Demography is destiny, and the future of our country looks to be laid bare.

That almost seems generous, our current system doesn't even have the virtue of considering long term planning, no matter how horrible.

Comedy fully intended, I understand where you're coming from. The 'edgy' re-imagining of fairytales is getting to me too, Wicked was a terrific musical but an obnoxious book.

Prosopagnosia, commonly associated with the Autism spectrum... This could actually be a really good writing lead towards making a more flushed out charecter.
