Thank you so much for all the suggestions. Some books that were suggested, like Crazy '08 I have read which came from a suggestion here a few years ago. Someone mentioned Boys Of Summer which, oddly enough I had put that on my list to read once again as it has been years since I had first picked it up. I was 11 years old and bought Boys of Summer at the local bookstore and loved what I was reading. My mom took a sudden interest in reviewing this book and took it away as she felt there was some very inappropriate items in those pages and didnt want me to read it. I need to go back and check it out again and find out what was so bad about it. LOL

I have written much of what Jane Leavey has written and loved her work. There are other books mentioned here that I have never heard of which I very much appreciate. You all have given me a large list from which to kickstart my goal to get back to reading in 2026 and challenge my 16 year old granddaughter to read more books than and prove it with the Goodreads app.

Special thanks to another board member who private messaged me with personal recommendation for a book he found pretty special. That one will be on the top of my list.

Keep the suggestions coming. My granddaughter reads like crazy. I need to keep up with her in 2026
