You sound like a well read person so you may have read some or all of these!. My recommendations would include anything by Mark Twain, The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Back of the North Wind, The Catcher in the Rye!.!.!.!.
I hope your a never see the movie before you read the book person!. I have found the movies ruin most books!. There are a few exceptions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Try anything by Steinbeck if you like the classics!.
If you want something political, try Animal Farm or Atlas Shrugged!.
Every teen should read The Diary of Anne Frank, too!.
Swing from fiction to non-fiction and read Castaway!. It's pretty interesting!.

I agree with what some of the other people have replied with!. The only one I didn't see (of course, I may have missed it), was the Eragon series!.
