It’s been awhile since I’ve posted an Oldies but Goodies, so here’s one for high school students.
Several of these books are required reading, but it’s surprising how much more enjoyable they are when just read for fun. Most are available at libraries and Amazon.com, some are even on Kindle, all are good. One of them might not be equally enjoyed by both sexes, but frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn. 😉
