Unbroken

Submitted by:  Shelley Titzer



Adults and teens, are you looking for an inspiring page turner to get lost in this summer?  Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand is an INCREDIBLE story.  You will not be able to put this book down. 

Louis Zamperini, who died yesterday at the age of 97, is an inspiration not as much for his service to our country (though that in itself makes him a true hero!) or for his athletic accomplishments as an Olympic athlete or for his enduring of such suffering and overcoming such obstacles in his life...but for "The hardest thing" he ever did: forgive. Are you holding a grudge? Is there someone you struggle to forgive? Read Unbroken and start living! RIP Louis Zamperini:Unbroken - Louis Zamperini - CBS Sunday Morning - 5-27-12

Just found this list of books for young adults! You might want to check out some of these books!

Click the picture to go to the website I found this at!

I've already read The Fault in our Stars, Speak, and 13 Reasons Why. They're all amazing! If that's any indication of this list, these should be great reads!

Anyone read anything else on this list? Please leave us a comment and share your review!
