Summer of '69 / Elin Hildebrand / 432 p.

Summer of '69I am very biased since I love Elin Hilderbrand's novels. The Summer of '69 just happens to be the year of my high school graduation. I decided it was the perfect read prior to going to our 50th reunion.
   Each chapter is a line or title of a song from that time period.  So fun and clever!

Young Jane Young/Gabrielle Zevin/294 pgs.

As a legislative intern, Aviva Grossman makes a big mistake--think Monica Lewinsky, but with a congressman instead of the President of the United States. In order to put the past behind her, Aviva reinvents herself: she changes her name, relocates to a different part of the country, and discovers her talent as an event planner. The story is told from different characters' perspectives, which gives an insight into Aviva that the reader might not otherwise obtain. Highly recommended!
