It's Kind of a Funny Story - Ned Vizzini

Since you didn't post a preference of genre i'll take the liberty of posting personal faves of mine. Take note that I am a girl

1) Tempest by Julie Cross: Jackson travels across time to save his girlfriend. All while finding out the secrets of his past, family, and the mysterious time traveling group responsible for his girlfriends death.

Unique because its written in a make point if view - very rare- , and because of the humor all throughout the story.

2) A Need So Beautiful by Suzanne Young: Charlotte is a type of agel on earth that feels an uncontrollable need to help people in need. She is also destined to be forgotten. By everyone. Very touching, and the end leaves you craving for the next book

3) Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini: Helen has spent her whole life hiding what makes her different from everyone else. Trouble is, even she doesn't know what she is. Until a strange family moves onto the island, revealing her whole heritage.

Hope you try them out. Thoroughly enjoyed them

Beautiful Creatures Series

Depends on the gender; for girls, I'd suggest The Strange Angels Series, and for boys, The Graveyard Book.

These are fantasy/somewhat scifi series

It all depends on their tastes. Recently, my daughter and son enjoyed a book called "Blink Once" by Cylin Busby. My daughter is thirteen and my son is sixteen. If it is a girl, I recommend Walk Two Moons, a Newberry winner. It is a very good book. Eragon is a book my son enjoyed. I hope this helps!

Check out Will Grayson, Will Grayson or The Fault in our Stars, both by John Green. You'd love both.

The Gone Series

Hunger Games

SHADOW OF THE WIND Series

to be honest it depends what type you like reading....please include more info

Try Nokosee: Rise of the New Seminole and its sequel Nokosee & Stormy: Love & Bullets. Both are contemporary "pre-dystopian" books where the world is on the tipping point of environmental collapse written from a 17-year-old girl's POV. They come with lots of action and adventure and Stormy Jones, the girl in the stories, is a tsundere character (as is Nokosee) that will stick with you for a long time. She's far from perfect but she's real enough to want to love her and pull for her during her life on the run with Nokosee.

Jennifer Miller’s debut novel The Year of the Gadfly is a tale of prep school scandal and secret societies starring a very precocious 15-year-old young lady named Iris Dupont, whose best and only friend is the chain-smoking ghost of famed broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow. If it sounds weirdly wonderful, it is – Iris would kill us for using a cliché here, but we can’t help but call the novel compulsively readable, and it feels a little something like a cross between The Secret History and Gossip Girl, although with significantly more masturbation scenes than the former and more dusty tomes than the latter. As reviewed by Emily Temple, Flavorwire

Jeffrey Eugenides' debut novel The Virgin Suicides. A moving story inspired by true events about the suicides of five teenage sisters as told from the viewpoint (for the most part) of randy teenage boys who try to explain it all. Also a 1999 movie starring Kirstin Dunst. Directed by Sophia Coppola.

I Never Promised You A Rose Garden by Joanne Greenberg. A critically appraised and touching semi-autobiographical story of a 16-year-old girl battling schizophrenia in a mental hospital. Also a 1977 movie starring Kathleen Quinlan.

Mary Stewart Atwell's debut novel Wild Girls. "This daringly imagined, atmospheric, and original book is part coming-of-age story and part supernatural tale about teenage girls learning their own strength. Kate Riordan fears two things as she grows up in the small Appalachian town of Swan River: that she’ll be a frustrated townie forever, or that she’ll turn into one of the monstrous wild girls, fire starters who menace the community. Struggling to better her chances of escaping, Kate attends the posh Swan River Academy and finds herself divided between her hometown—and its dark history—and the realm of privilege and achievement at the Academy. Explosive friendships with Mason, a boy from the wrong side of town, and Willow, a wealthy and popular queen bee from school are slowly pulling her apart. Kate must decide who she is and where she belongs before she wakes up with cinders at her fingertips." Review by Flavorwire.

The Adults by Alison Espach is the "defining novel for recovering debutantes from Connecticut. The novel is narrated by Emily, a high school freshman, who grows up in the privileged world of investment bank commuters and desperate housewives. Her padded life suddenly unravels when she wakes early one morning after a sleepover, and looks out her kitchen window to witness her neighbor’s suicide. Meanwhile, her classmates provide anything but comfort (i.e. The fat girl in class gets nicknamed ABOB, which stands for “Annie The Bird or Bear” because nobody can decide if her nose makes her a bird, or if her fat makes her a bear). Satire, obviously. But amidst the byzantine cruelty only privileged high schoolers are capable of, grace is found in the secret, illicit relationship that develops between Emily and her English teacher. Espach never excuses the relationship, but she never indicts it either. Amidst a world of cheese platters and art auctions, their relationship simply surfaces as something real while everything else in Emily’s world just seems sterilized... (This is) white girl fiction.” by Geoff Max for Flavorwire.

Hick by Andrea Portes. Teenage Luli is fed up with her drunken parents brawls and decides to leave Nebraska for Las Vegas. Along the way, a wily con artist and a sullen cowboy each try to lay claim to the conflicted girl's future. Also a 2011 movie starring Chloe Moretz and Blake Lively.

The Death of Bees: A Novel by Lisa O'Donnell. This just released beautiful and darkly comic coming-of-age mystery surrounds 15-year-old Marnie and her little sister who know more than they want to reveal about the deaths of their parents who they buried in the backyard. 320 pages.
