'10 Things I Hate About Me' and 'Does My Head look Big in this'!? Both by Randa Abdel-Fattah!. They are both about young women dealing with having ethnic backgrounds in the modern world, and how they accept their culture!. Two really good books!. http://www!.theblurb!.com!.au/Issue71/TenTh!.!.!.

Another one is Before I Die by Jenny Downham, which is about a 16 year old girl with terminal cancer, and her life before she dies!.

also, Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman!. Its like racism reversed!. Everyone is either a Nought (white person) or a Cross (black person), but the Crosses are the high society and the Noughts have no rights!. A series of three books!.
