Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Why don't you try reading the "Dawn" series by VC Andrews, or the "Flowers in the Attic" series!. I read them all when I was 14 (although the books target 15-20yr olds), and I couldn't put them down! Trust me, they were bestsellers in their day for a reason!. And I'm the type who gets bored VERY quickly!
