A Tree Grows in Brooklyn! It’s transcendent. Also I think might be the longest of those. Long enough to keep you occupied!
GLASS CASTLE is the BEST⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Take one out right and sneak the rest, you never know, choice is good
Hahahah!! You know I will be trying to squeeze in for sure!!?
Why can’t you take more than one book?
Haha!! Three kids and a LOT of stuff going in two average size cars back to college in Florida!! I have some on audiobook for the drive from New Jersey… but those were on the top of my physical tbr pile… hopefully some beach or poolside time to enjoy one!!?
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn! Although The Glass Castle was great too.

A vote here for the oldie fav, Time & Again. Have read several times and it still blows my mind. Great fun and you can have fascinating conversations with your kids about the power of choices.
Tree grows in Brooklyn, no contest!
A Tree Grows In Brooklyn. One of my favorite books.

I’m reading Beartown now… it’s good but just can’t get into it yet.
I loved Time and Again.
I have wanted to read Time &Again for so long!! I finally pulled it off shelf and decided to add it to the top of the TBR
Glass Castle.
Every book you’ve mentioned is wonderful.
Yes!! That was my thought as I tried to see what I could squeeze into my bag… so I figured I’d seek some help!!???

If you’ve ever had doubts about your parenting, read The Glass Castle and you’ll feel great!
Just finished The Glass Castle. It’s riveting and you won’t want to put it down. Beartown was slow for me.
Time and Again if you mean Jack Finney’s classic time travel novel
Tree
Beartown is really good. It takes a minute to get going, but it does get going. I’m on the sequel now. It’s great too
Thanks so much everyone!! I genuinely appreciate the comments!! Looks like my TBR pile had some solid choices!! ? They will all hopefully get read before school in New Jersey begins (I am a teacher) but I am going to relate the comments and have them fit to this family journey and go with The Glass Castle as it seems relevant to parenting and family… it might spark some great conversation as we travel!!?
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn… it’s a perfect read in the spirit of sending your grown kids off to college, plus it’ll keep you occupied the whole trip. (Glass Castle I finished in about two hours in one sitting.)
Ok!! I will squeeze both in!!?

I would pass on The Glass Castle, I didn’t think it was that good.
loved it and the movie too
I enjoyed it, but it is short, as I recall. Willit last the whole time?
I thought it was very good. I still vote for Tree grows in Brooklyn.
The Glass Castle was one of my best books ever. If you enjoy it then buy EDUCATED BY TARA WESTOVER. ?????
@Minda I didn’t know there was a movie??!! Interesting!!

@Susan I finished Educated by Tara Westover a few weeks ago!!
Of the two I’ve read, I would recommend The Glass Castle over Beartown. I enjoyed them both but Beartown has a very slow start.
That seems to be a common response. That it picks up but it takes a while.
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Hands down.
