Everyone loves a good coming-of-age story, and so do we. 📚 The kind that gives you complicated friendships, figuring yourself out, making questionable choices, and slowly realizing that growing up is a lot messier than you thought it would be.  🍂

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the genre or just getting into it, this week’s Three to Read has a little something for you. Today, our team has picked out three recommendations that touch on masculinity, family, ambition, friendship, class, and the pressure of becoming the person you’re expected to be. Things can get messy as these characters try to figure themselves out, but honestly, isn’t that half the fun? 🤎

Swipe through to meet three characters figuring it all out in very different ways, and find the coming-of-age story you’ll want to add to your TBR. 📚 Read the full article through the link in our bio.
