A candid memoir\u2026<\/strong><\/span>
\nIn Our Teenage Years, author T. J. Wray chronicles his life growing up in a small town in Oklahama in the 1980s. He recalls growing up in a dysfunctional home, working as a newspaper boy at minimum wages, becoming a teen dad, and reveals his innocent adventures as a teenager with his best friend Terry. The young boy we meet here is someone who makes mistakes and learns from them. While Wray lacks the flair of a veteran writer, he tells his story in simple words, touching readers\u2019 hearts with his candid approach, a humble narrative, and profound insights. With its lively stories about a bygone era when life was simpler and happier, the book will delight readers who grew up during the 1980s.<\/span>
