Being a middle school English teacher, I have the summers off and do a lot of reading. And this year, with the family in Europe for the summer, I have even more time to read. Plus, I read pretty fast--it's part of the job. And my faves list would go for days (psst: anything by T.C. Boyle)... So I'm going to stick to listing the good ones I have read so far this summer:

The sci-fi trilogy by Cixcin Lui, translated from the Chinese: The Three Body Problem, The Dark Forest, The End of Death.
A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson
The North Water by Ian McGuire
The Terror by Dan Simmons
Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders
Eileen and Homesick for Another World both by Otessa Moshfegh
Not a Drop to Drink by Mindy McGinnis
All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai
The Impossible Fortress by Jason Rekulak
Colossus (all 3) by D F Jones
Hillbilly Elegy by J D Vance

Haha! When we read that book in high school ('70's), everyone started calling ME Holden!
I could still recite chunks of that book from memory.

This. The Maus books are required reading for my 7th graders, and they love them!

All these!

And this.

also this.

And my fave Stephen King is 1963. Or Under the Dome
