Question: 16 year olds!? -- That read!.!?
What is the best book you have ever read for teens!?
Besides the twilight series and sarah dessen books or harry potter!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
These -

The A List (series of 10) - Zoey Dean
About the goings on of the teenage children of the rich and famous, contains a wide variety of material - love, hate, jealousy etc!. Loved it!

Girl Meets Boy, Guy Next Door, All American Girl, Avalon High, etc!. - Meg Cabot
I absoloutly love Meg Cabot's books! I would especially recommend the Girl Meets Boy & Guy Next Door as well as the third in that series, I immensly enjoyed them! Some are intended for adults but most for youth and I love them all!

Lioness Quartet, Wild Magic Quartet, Trickster, etc!. - Tamora Pierce
Tamora Pierce's books are mainly set in the land of Tortall in medieval times, they use the same characters just at different stages of their lives and different books/series' focus on different people!. They consist of fighting, magic, love, etc!.

The diaries of kelly ann (2 books) & Jumping to Confusions - by Liz Rettig
These recount the goings on of an older teenager as she strugles to make decisions and learn to trust in others!. The second one, Now or Never is about her relationship with a boy and is funny but romantic and suspencful at the same time!.

It's A Mall World After All - Not sure who wrote it though!.!.!.
Comedy of a girl and how she falls in love with her best friend's boyfriend's bestfriend while stalking her friend's boyfriend in an attempt to prove he is a lying cheating scumbag!. A very good read & lovey but funny at the same time!.

I'd Tell You I Love You But I'd Have to Kill You - Ally Carter
About a girl brought up as a spy and enrolled in a leading spy school who falls in love with an ordinary boy and can’t tell him who she actually is!. Funny!. There is a second in the series called To Spy or Not to Spy, it’s just as good!.

Possibly the S!.A!.S!.S!. series - Numerous Authors
About the travels of students and what happens to them on their stay - love etc!. Not brill but an ok read

Inheritance Cycle - Christopher Paloini
Love them, you have to read them, Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr!

Sweet Valley High Books - !?!?!?
I can’t remember who wrote these but they’re a pretty good read even if they are kind of old!. If you’re into series’s these are good as their’s over 100 books

The Last Summer (Of You and Me) - Ann Brashares
A good book but immensly sad, it is probably better for older teens or adults!.

Ya, Gemma Doyle series is really good!.
Right now I'm reading The Other Boleyn Girl by Philipa Gregory which is amazing, as was The Queen's Fool by the same author!.
Jodi Picoult books are also very good: I highly recommend My Sister's Keeper and Salem Falls!.
Ever read the real Alice In Wonderland!.!.!.it's pretty awesome, give it a try (Lewis Carroll)
And if your up for it Jane Austen is amazing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

besides the ones you said Julia Peters is a really good author i loved Luna and Keeping You A Secret they were really good you should look them up

Luna is about a girl whos brother is a trans-sexual but only at night and she is the only one who knows

Keeping You A Secret is about a girl who mets another girl and finaly admits to herself that she is gay but her girlfriend doesnt want her to tell the world so she wont have to go through what she did when people found out she was gay

I also liked the Sabriel series

Leven Thumps series

Books by ellen hopkins

Crank: Kristina Georgia Snow is the perfect daughter: gifted high school junior, quiet, never any trouble!. But on a trip to visit her absentee father, Kristina disappears and Bree takes her place!. Bree is the exact opposite of Kristina -- she's fearless!.

Through a boy, Bree meets the monster: crank!. And what begins as a wild, ecstatic ride turns into a struggle through hell for her mind, her soul -- her life!.

Glass: (sequel to Crank)

Impulse: Sometimes you don't wake up!. But if you happen to, you know things will never be the same!.


Three lives, three different paths to the same destination: Aspen Springs, a psychiatric hospital for those who have attempted the ultimate act -- suicide!.


Vanessa is beautiful and smart, but her secrets keep her answering the call of the blade!.


Tony, after suffering a painful childhood, can only find peace through pills!.


And Conner, outwardly, has the perfect life!. But dig a little deeper and find a boy who is in constant battle with his parents, his life, himself!.


In one instant each of these young people decided enough was enough!. They grabbed the blade, the bottle, the gun -- and tried to end it all!. Now they have a second chance, and just maybe, with each other's help, they can find their way to a better life -- but only if they're strong and can fight the demons that brought them here in the first place!.

Burned: I do know things really began to spin out of control after my first sex dream!.

It all started with a dream!. Nothing exceptional, just a typical fantasy about a boy, the kind of dream that most teen girls experience!. But Pattyn Von Stratten is not like most teen girls!. Raised in a religious -- yet abusive -- family, a simple dream may not be exactly a sin, but it could be the first step toward hell and eternal damnation!.

This dream is a first step for Pattyn!. But is it to hell or to a better life!? For the first time Pattyn starts asking questions!. Questions seemingly without answers -- about God, a woman's role, sex, love -- mostly love!. What is it!? Where is it!? Will she ever experience it!? Is she deserving of it!?

It's with a real boy that Pattyn gets into real trouble!. After Pattyn's father catches her in a compromising position, events spiral out of control until Pattyn ends up suspended from school and sent to live with an aunt she doesn't know!.

Pattyn is supposed to find salvation and redemption during her exile to the wilds of rural Nevada!. Yet what she finds instead is love and acceptance!. And for the first time she feels worthy of both -- until she realizes her old demons will not let her go!. Pattyn begins down a path that will lead her to a hell -- a hell that may not be the one she learned about in sacrament meetings, but it is hell all the same!.

Identical:
Do twins begin in the womb!?
Or in a better place!?

Kaeleigh and Raeanne are identical down to the dimple!. As daughters of a district-court judge father and a politician mother, they are an all-American family -- on the surface!. Behind the facade each sister has her own dark secret, and that's where their differences begin!.

For Kaeleigh, she's the misplaced focus of Daddy's love, intended for a mother whose presence on the campaign trail means absence at home!. All that Raeanne sees is Daddy playing a game of favorites -- and she is losing!. If she has to lose, she will do it on her own terms, so she chooses drugs, alcohol, and sex!.

Secrets like the ones the twins are harboring are not meant to be kept -- from each other or anyone else!. Pretty soon it's obvious that neither sister can handle it alone, and one sister must step up to save the other, but the question is -- who!?
