Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling socially isolated or struggling with who to trust in their peer group. Skyjacked is a high-octane thriller that uses a life or death crisis to strip away social masks and reveal true character. It is an ideal pick for reluctant readers who need immediate action to stay engaged while exploring deep themes of loyalty and collective survival. While the plot centers on a terrifying hijacking, the heart of the story is the interpersonal dynamics between five friends. As the pressure mounts, the narrative explores how fear can either fracture a group or forge unbreakable bonds. The content is intense but appropriate for the middle school and high school level, focusing on psychological resilience and the weight of split-second decisions. It provides a safe space to discuss how we react under pressure and what it means to be a true friend when the stakes are at their highest.
