Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
My favorite book in the whole world is called, Beneath a Marble Sky by John Shors!.

And wow!.!.!.this book is just so amazing and I had even read the Twilight series before this book, and I never thought any other book could compare to the Twilight series!.!.!.but seriously, as I read this book I was like, "Edward who!?" And I NEVER thought I would say that and I'm a HUGE Twilight fan!. It's about a young princess in India and the love she experiences (or doesn't experience) and the love between her mother and father-->and how her father built the Taj Mahal because of love!. I don't know how good of a preview that was, or how bad it actually sounded, but really, it's AWESOME!.

I also love the classics:
Black Beauty
The Little Princess

And don't forget Chronicles of Narnia for a fast read!.

If you like deep books, I read The Poisonwood Bible for my English class, and after I got past the first few chapters I absolutely fell in love with it!.!.!.but I'm not sure what type of reader you are and not all teens like this book, so if you plan on reading it, then just get it from the library first!.
Another deeper book is: What is the What!? by Dave Eggers and it's all about the Sudanese genocide, told from the point of view of one refugee/survivor who's now living in the U!.S!. (I'm very passionate about that kind of stuff, and it opens your eyes so much! It just takes a while ot get going!.

Hmmm!.!.!.I just love to read, and I'm glad you do too!!
If you haven't read The Host by Stephenie Meyer, it's sooo amazing and as good/better than Twilight!.

Oooo! All of Dan Brown's books are super fabulous!. Not just The DaVinci Code, but also Angels and Demons (my favorite one), Digital Fortress, and Deception point!.!.!.these are jam-packed full of action, but still fast reads

I really hope you take up at least one of my suggestions, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

the mediator series by Meg Cabot it's six books here is a little preview of the first book

There's a hot guy in Susannah Simon's bedroom!. Too bad he's a ghost!.

And they won't leave her alone until she helps them resolve their unfinished business with the living!. But Jesse, the hot ghost haunting her bedroom, doesn't seem to need her help!. Which is a relief, because Suze has just moved to sunny California and plans to start fresh, with trips to the mall instead of the cemetery, and surfing instead of spectral visitations!.

But the very first day at her new school, Suze realizes it's not that easy!. There's a ghost with revenge on her mind!.and Suze happens to be in the way!.

You should really check out the book Twilight by Stephanie Meyer!. Its about a young girl falling in love with a vampire!. Its really good and the sequels all mad best seller!. You should really really read it (not forceing u) trust me all the people i know has either read it loved it and the 4th and final book is out on saturday!. If your into romance, action, secrets, and drama then Twilight would be the best to chose by my opinion!. another book wouldWww@QuestionHome@Com
