Ender's Game or Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card, very good Sci-Fi
Maximum Ride
Blood and Chocolate
Thirteen Little Blue Envelopes
Artemis Fowl (it's a bit juvenile, but good nonetheless)
All Meg Cabot books are pretty quick reads
Looking for Alaska AND An Abundance of Katherines, both by John Green and both very, very good
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime!.
The 'Uglies' series and the 'Midnighters' series, both by Scott Westerfeld
Wicked
Feed by MT Anderson
Marley and Me
A Yellow Raft in Blue Water
The Book Thief!. This is VERY good!. It's narrated by 'Death'!. It's kind of a sci-fi, but it is set during the Holocaust!.
Howl's Moving Castle
The Thief Lord and Inkheart, both by Cornelia Funke
Montmorency: Thief, Liar, Gentleman!?
A Mango Shaped Space
The Named AND Old Magic, both by Marianne Curley!. The Named is absolutely one of my favorite books!.
Small Steps: The Year I Got Polio!. This one is non-fiction!. It's not normally something I would read, but I devoured it in a matter of days!. It was very good!.
The Stephanie Plum series!.
Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin
Then there's the classics
Slaughterhouse-5 and Cat's Cradle, both by Kurt Vonnegut!.
A Separate Peace
Tale of Two Cities, which sounds boring, but it absolutely is not!

Ender's Game, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Jane Austen (if you're brave-read Mansfield Park or Emma, they are easier to get into!. Mansfield Park is my very favorite!.), anything by Terry Pratchett (not really a difficult writing style, but more adult-situated humor and SO HILARIOUS!.), and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!. All killer books!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ender's Game

For Whom The Bell Tolls

The Old Man and The Sea

Animal Farm

1984

Catch 22

Battlefield Earth

Redwall series

I could go on and on!. This is only a few!.
