4Real Forums: 50 best books for boys and young men

Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I have never NOT seen The Hatchet on a male booklist of this sort.

Some of those titles were new to me though... and I really have a healthy respect for that particular website so I'm taking it to the bank and noting them!

Thanks for the link! I'm planning a boys bookmclub for middle schoolers and was thinking about high school, this list may really help with the high school decision!

Some of these books were new to me.

Does anyone have any comments on Heat or Heart of a Champion?

We love sports books here

...there are several books that I'm not familiar with that look like great reads for the summer.

Thanks for this list - my son will be very excited (when he finishes the Redwall series, that is!)
