We vividly remember reading “Little House on the Prairie,” “Harriet the Spy” and “Flowers in the Attic,” and we’re convinced the nostalgic “Shelf Discovery: The Teen Classics We Never Stopped Reading” will have the same impact on us.Author Lizzie Skurnick looks back on the books we were raised on, and celebrates a generation of girl power. With essays from new-favorite writers like Jennifer Weiner and Laura Lippman, this is an ode to those (Lois Duncan, Judy Blume) who got us through our first period, our first heartbreak, our self-doubts.

This is a volume that will make the men in your life jealous (What did they have? The Hardy Boys?). Give it a place of honor next to that dog-eared copy of “My Darling, My Hamburger.”
