Answer 3

Well, since you're a MAJOR bookworm, then theres a sight called

worthyofpublishing.com

that has hundreds of books that you can read, comment and rate on, and it's free.

Most of them aren't published, but they are as the title says, 'worthy of publishing'.

If you're looking to buy a book, then I would suggest

The Hunger games trilogy by Suzanne Collins

The Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer

Wings by Aprilynne Pike

The looking glass wars by Frank Beddor

Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte

And the vampire's assistant is okay if you're good with reading huge books that aren't written well at all :)

Sorry I couldn't list more :)

Source(s): I've read them all and more

Answer 4

I don't remember the authors of these books, but they are good ones, realistic fiction that's not overly complicated..

Elsewhere

Itch

Beige

Lost and Found

the perks of being a wallflower is an absolute MUST READ. It's probably a little intense if you live a sheltered life, but it is a fantastic book.

Answer 5

Maximum Ride

The boy in the Striped Pajamas

The Divide

Inkheart

Mathew Flinder's Cat

Hoot

Answer 6

The Clique Series by Lisi Harrison

I started those when I was 13.

**EDIT**

I'd like to add any books by Sarah Dessen would be a good choice. Her books are amazing. Um, Ally Carter is good as well and so is Elizabeth Scott. I loved Bloom and Perfect You by her.

Answer 7

The Luxe series-ana godberson (a must read!)

Twilight

Wings

The sisterhood of the traveling pants

Atonment

The Book theif

The time travelers wife

The host

Answer 8
