“Then Again, Maybe I Won’t” by Judy Blume

Today we'll be saving the book with the lime green cover that said all the things we couldn't say out loud: Judy Blume's 1971 coming-of-age classic for the boys, “Then Again, Maybe I Won't.” Even after 52 years in print, this book still ranks the highest in its utter forthrightness, daring to acknowledge that boys struggled with their unruly body parts and unsettling thoughts. Join us for a book club discussion in which the word "hard" comes up over and over and over and over again. 😂 And Judy Blume taught us that that's okay!
