Books for 10th Grade

Our Books for 10th Grade collection highlights titles that support deeper critical thinking and empathy for readers around ages 15–16. Homeschoolers, afterschooling families, and caregivers will find vetted, secular fiction and nonfiction, including classics, contemporary literature, memoir, and narrative nonfiction linked to history, science, and social issues. Every book is reviewed for literary quality, age-appropriateness, and inclusive representation, with attention to mature themes so you can choose what fits your teen and family values. Use the filters to sort by genre, subject tie-in (civics, psychology, STEM, global issues), reading level, and themes such as identity, justice, relationships, and resilience. You can also filter for audio-friendly or high-interest options that work well for ADHD or dyslexic readers. Many families build tenth grade English and social studies around books from this collection. If you’re unsure which titles will support your teen’s growth, Modulo’s AI learning concierge can help you curate a custom list.
