Finished Unwind by Neal Shusterman. He definitely wrote it for young teens. I found the idea of "unwinding" teenagers unusual and original. Although, to be honest, I didn't quite think the events leading up to how such actions became legislated were credible. Also, his political views were too in-your-face. I get the feeling he was encouraging his young readers to be aggressive activists.
Overall, it was good. Grade it a C+.

Next is Three Men in a Boat by Jerome.
