Bridget (bridget224) | 66 comments Hello fellow book lovers! So for my senior year of high school I must read one of five given novels this summer but none of them really jump out at me so I am hoping you guys can help! Here are the choices:

Friday Night Lights by H.G. Bissinger
My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
Bringing Down the House by Ben Mezrich
About a Boy by Nick Hornby
The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls

Thank you in advance! (:

Ash (morethanfairytales) | 115 comments Of the five, I've only read My Sister's Keeper. It's one of the few books that made me cry. I don't know what your taste in books is like, but I can tell you that this novel is very sad and moving. Picoult's characters are sympathetic and she writes in a way that is both realistic and makes you think about life in a deeper way. It'll keep you hooked until the end.

I read The Glass Castle in my senior year of high school for English. I loved it.

Bridget (bridget224) | 66 comments Thanks Laura! Honestly, it seems that's one of the five that has great reviews. So I'm kinda leaning towards it.
