A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. It’s a play and not a book, but we had to read it regardless. It was so good

unpopular opinion and I also did read this one for fun (in highschool, so hopefully that still counts) but the catcher in the rye. I think I just read it at the right time and temperament
