Judy Blume has a lot of great adult books...But I think Summer SIsters is the best...It was light, but good...Fun, but at the same time I cried my eyes out.

All of the Judy Blume “grownup” books I’ve read have been great. Did not read “Summer Sisters” but “Smart Women” and Wifey” were both very good – if not slightly dirty.
