-Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
-Watership Down by Richard Adams
-Great Expectations by Charles Dickens*

*'s are the ones I really REALLY recommend for anyone to read!!!
If you liked the clique books, then I'd definately suggest a Sarah Dessen book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

for a girl, of course, i reccomend the twilight series!. = ) and The Host, also by stephenie meyer (author of twilight), but it's not in the twilight series!.
and depending on what kind of books you like, i'd reccomend the classic 'a wrinkle in time'!. = )
i just read it again and discovered i liked it a lot more when i wasn't being forced to read it!. and i'm 15, so take it from another teenager!. = )Www@QuestionHome@Com
