These books are some of our all-time favorites—whether you’re a preteen or just in the mood for a fun, feel-good read, you’ll want to add these to your list!

Our bookshelf has something for everyone, spanning teen romance, thought-provoking memoirs, and compelling fiction. My daughter is an avid reader who flew through the Crave series by Tracy Wolff and still recommends The Fault in Our Stars by John Green for its relatable characters. One of my personal all-time favorites is Present Over Perfect by Shauna Niequist, its message challenged me to slow down and rethink my approach to life. I’m currently diving into Good Energy by Dr. Casey Means, which has inspired me to wear a continuous glucose monitor and pay closer attention to my health (thanks, Elizabeth). For a lighter summer read, I’m enjoying Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin.These books offer a rich mix of perspectives and stories, perfect for readers of all ages and interests.
