Mr. Nesse's Period 5 AP English Language Class holding the books they reviewed.We are excited to announce a special collaboration between the Davies Library Media Center and Mr. Nesse’s AP English Language (Period 5) class!

Our AP students have been hard at work diving into impactful nonfiction titles. But they didn't just summarize—they analyzed, questioned, and evaluated. Using a professional 7-point framework, these students explored why these books matter, how the authors build their arguments, and who in our community should read them next.

Looking for your next great read? Support your peers and get an honest, "no-spoiler" look at some powerful nonfiction by checking out their work online!

What makes a Davies AP review?
  • Understanding the author’s "why."
  • Looking at how the argument is made.
  • Balancing strengths with limitations.
  • Connecting the book to real-world values and action.
Great job, Period 5, on these insightful contributions to our school's literary culture!
