I Am Still Alive is by Kate Alice Marshall. Sixteen-year-old Jess has to go live with her survivalist father after a car crash kills her mother and leaves her handicapped. When a friend of her father's picks her up at the airport and flies her out into the wilderness, she realizes she is alone with a father she doesn't really know. After her father is murdered, Jess must find a way to survive in the Canadian wilderness until she can avenge her father's death and find a way back to civilization. A real page-turner, if you enjoyed Hatchet, consider this a more grownup version.
