Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I really think that you will like the "Twilight" series!. It's about a teenage girl who moves to a small town and falls in love with a vampire!. Or "A Great and Terrible Beauty"!. It's about a girl who can travel to magical dimension (for lack of a better word)!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Magic:

The Tales of The Frog Princess by E!.D Baker: These books are about a princess who is not all prim and proper but more of a tom boy!. Well after kissing a frog she turns into one herself and must go on a long journey to turn herself back!. The series has lots of magic, love/relationships, and adventure in it!.

Mystery:

The Kidnapping of Christina Lattimore by Joan Lowery Nixon: This books is about a girl with rich parents who is kidnapped but when the police find her the kidnappers make it seem like she staged her own kidnapping!. The girl goes through hell trying to prove herself inoccent to friends and family, and there's some love/relationships in it also!.

Those are some good starter books for people exploring new styles of reading!. You cna find both sugestions at almost any book store and their both really good!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm a guy, and I have no idea what teenage girls like to read!.

But I have a fantasy book that isn't extremely "masculine", and it's pretty good!. It might sound like a Harry Potter rip-off, but it is actually older (my copy says "Copyright 1983")!.

The protagonist is a girl named Nita!. She runs into a library while being chased by some local bullies!. Somewhere in this library, she finds a book that supposedly tells you how to become a wizard!. It turns out to do just that, and it leads to a pretty creative adventure with some unexpected elements to it!.

It's called "So You Want to Be a Wizard"!. It's not a challenging book at all, but I read it when I was 16, and I really enjoyed it!. I think it's part of a series, so once you're done with it, there's more to read!. I haven't read any of the sequels, yet!.

Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series starts out extremely good, but I thought it got a little dull and repetitive after the 5th book or so!. It's about 12 books long, and the author died before the last one was finished (it isn't out yet, but by the time you read all the other books, it should be done)!.

I don't know if you should bother with that one, but if you like "The Lord of the Rings" and similar stories, I'd recommend it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

oh i know the perfect book! well it doesn't have high school girls and boys but you should try reading skulldugery pleasant(i might have spelt it wrong) plus if you're looking for those kinds of books, then try manga, you're hitting it right on the nose if you wanting to read stuff with magic, mystery and girls and boys high school!. Try Vampire KnightWww@QuestionHome@Com

Read Koontz Books!. They are very Suspencful and will have you guessing for the outcomes right up to the very end and even then they will surprise you!. He is one of the best authors i have ever read and always look foward to his books!. I would recomend starting with his book called Lightning or maybe the Odd Thomas series!. Both excellent reads!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Here are some of my favorite teen and some adult-ish novels:

Twilight by Stephenie Meyer!. It's about a girl named Bella who moves to Forks, Washington and runs into a group of vampires!. VERY VERY good! I REALLY think you should give it a chance because I'm not into vampire stuff, but it was AMAZING!
http://stepheniemeyer!.com/twilight!.html

Pants On Fire by Meg Cabot!. It's about a girl who basically has everything (popular best friend, good grades!.!.!. and TWO boyfriends!.) It's really funny because then her friend from eighth grade come back to town (everyone hates him) and she falls head over heals for him too!.

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares!. It's about four girls who where born as friends!. They go through ups and downs together!.

The Last Summer (Of You and Me) by Ann Brashares was amazing!. It may be more of an adult book, but it was fairly good!.

All-American Girl and All-American Girl Ready Or Not by Meg Cabot!. It's about an outcast girl who happens to save the presidents life!. Suddenly everyone at school wants to be her friend, but she doesn't really care!.!.!. What she does care about is the presidents son!.!.!.

Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot!. It's about a girl who goes over seas with her boyfriend after (almost!) finishing college!. After a bad break up with him, she goes with her friend and runs into someone!.!.!.!. It's a very good adult book!

How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot!. It's about a girl who comes across an old book in her grandma'a attic called how to be popular!. So, she follows the rules of the book hoping to become popular!.

Jinx by Meg Cabot!. If you liked Twilight, then you'll like this book!. It's about a girl who has bad luck all the time so she moves in with her aunt and uncle!. He sister is into witchcraft and I don't want to spoil the rest, but it fairly good!.

Teen Idol by Meg Cabot!. This is about a girl who has an advice column in her school newspaper!. So, when a famous actor comes to her school and she's the only one who knows about it, chaos occurs!

Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen is also pretty good!. It's about two girls that are best friends who are having a few issues in the love department!.

Just Listen by Sarah Dessen is one of my favorites! It's about a girl who had something terrible happen to her and she's learning how to cope with it and befriends an outcast boy!.

The Mediator series by Meg Cabot!. I've only read the first two, but they are VERY good!. It's about a girl named Suze who moves to California from New York because her mother just remarried!. Oh, and Suze can see ghosts!.!.!.

13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher!. It's about a guy named Clay who gets these tapes in the mail about why a girl named Hannah killed herself!. It's very good and a great page-turner!

She Went All The Way by Meg Cabot!. This is a book for more mature people, but it's very good!. It's about two people who get stranded in the wilderness!.

Forever!.!.!. by Judy Bloom is also pretty good!. It's about a girl getting a boyfriend and going through sensual things!. It's a little mature!.

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan is okay!. My friends LOVED it! I don't wanna tell you what it's about because it'll just give it all away!.

The Host by Stephenie Meyer!. It's about how these things called souls invade Earth, as well as humans!. It's based on a soul named Wanda who is placed into Melanie, who refuses to fade away like she's suppose too!. It's very interesting and I totally recommend it!
