High five! I'm a teenager as well! Though, I don't really read the same books as typical teenagers do!. :D Anyway, you might like my suggestions!. I never know!. :]

Here are some:
1!. "A Mango-Shaped Space" by Wendy Mass
2!. "Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life" by Wendy Mass
3!. "I Was a Non-Blonde Cheerleader" by I-forgot-who
4!. "Chinese Cinderella" by Adeline Yen Mah
5!. "Stargirl" by Jerry Spinelli
6!. "Eggs" by Jerry Spinelli
7!. "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson (I really recommend this)
8!. "Holes" by Louis Sachar
9!. "Small Steps" by Louis Sachar
10!. "Chocolate War" by Robert CormierWww@QuestionHome@Com

I love Meg Cabot (Heather Wells & Queen of Babble) and Sophie Kinsella's (Shopaholic [soon to be movie] & Remember Me) Emily Giffin(Something Borrowed & Something Blue, Baby Proof) books!. I am in the process of reading Jennifer Weiner's (Good In Bed & Certain Girls) books!. They are all great authors!

For a young adult/teen I recommend Meg Cabot's young adult books!. She is the best author!. also best selling!. She wrote tons of books including the Princess Diaries (Movies based on her books), Mediator (upcoming movie), 1-800-Missing (TV show based on her books), Jinx, Airhead and more!. She has adult books too, so you can grow with her!.

If you want more info or the authors website's email me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Micheal Crichton is currently my favorite author!. His books have a bit of a "mystery" feel to them, and usually you can get away with them when someone asks you what you're reading!.
(No one will call you a nerd if you say a book about a talking monkey, or millions of tiny particles that destroy people!.)

I've read Prey, which is REALLY good!. Airframe is OK, could be better, but I still didn't want to put it down while I was reading it!.
And right now I'm reading NEXT, which is really good!.

He also wrote Jurassic Park, and a sequel to it!. And he created the series ER!.

--EDITED NOTES--
The book "Twilight" that was mentioned above me is GREAT!. My friend had it, and I started reading it and was GLUED to it!. Seriously, check it out!. You'll love it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i LOVE the clique books!! i have all that have came out the R AWSOME!!! but have you started The Clique summer series!?!? if you havent Massie,Dylan,and Alicia have already came out(i'm reading Alicia its really good) Kristen is on July first and Claire is i think August first or fourth (srry not sure) but if you wait till' october they are all coming out w/ a box set and each book comes w/ their own lipgloss!!

The Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer!. the 4th and final book is coming out this august!. They're making a movie that is coming out in december, but I know that it won't even be a fourth as good as the book!. I would really suggest reading this series!. I didn't like books much until i read this!.

Cirque Du Freak by Darren Shan!. series 12 books!.

Both are about vampires!. but twilight is a romance and they don't eat humans!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I know your gonna hear this, and judge the book by it's name and cover, but seriously, try these out!. Both are from Louis La'mour!. 1st) The Man From The Broken Hills and 2) Ride The Dark Trail!. you'll love em!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you like mysteries and sometimes scary books, read Dean Koontz!. He's my favorite!. He has a lot of books out and all of them have twists and turns and are hard to put down!. And no movies!. ;-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Peace
More then an end to war!.!.!.

And tell your friends to read it too!
