Read with Jenna Book Club

Jenna Bush Hager didn’t start her book club until early 2019, so it’s not nearly as long as Reese’s. (You can find the Reese list ranked here). While her list is shorter in number, the vast majority of the books we’ve read from her list have been exemplary. Think 5, 4.5, and 4-star reads!

Jackie is a HUGE fan of Jenna Bush Hager’s picks for that reason. Even the books we haven’t read yet are still scattered across our homes, waiting for their moment to shine. So check out the ranked Read with Jenna book list below and come back monthly to see the newest picks and updated rankings!

  1. I loved Solito byJavier Zamora. It was so well written through the thoughts and eyes of a nine year old, it captivated me. In a way it is about all of the Americans whose ancestors came to this country. Everyone was looking for a better life!
