    What it says on the title really. Just turned sixteen, I want to know a) what books you read at this age which had a strong impact on you, and/or b) what books you read later in life that you WISH you read when you were sixteen.

    I read all genres, not afraid of classics/non-fiction though I also enjoy a nice light beach read.

    Hit me with your best picks.

      I’ve read _Summer Sisters_ by Judy Blume every year since I was 15. It is such an accurate picture of complicated, long term friendship.

      An Imaginary Life by David Malouf, Thomas Hardy, John Wyndham, Tolkien…

      Honestly, I just wanted angst.

      Oh, and Tim Winton. And Bruce Dawe.
