Assuming by your name that you're a guy...here's some suggestions:
The Firm by John Grisham
Any book by Stephen King
A Separate Peace (can't remember the author)
The Ranger's Apprentice by John Flannagan
His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman
Eragon and Eldest by Christopher Paolini
The Client by John Grisham
Hope this helps! :)

The Bible...various writers inspired by GOD
Letters from Birmingham Prison - Dr. Martin Luthur King, Jr. - I had to read that in college...and that was during the early 70's...
Anything on Eleanor Roosevelt
Anything on Rosa Parks
The Great Generation by Tom Brookaw
Anything on Lee Iococca - vp of Ford - created the mustang car, and then was Ceo of Chrysler after the Ford's told him he'd never be president because he didn't have the name Ford as his last name!

Give "To Kill A Mockingbird" or "Animal Farm" a try. Those were part of my Freshman curriculum in high school a few years back and are brilliant and suitable for a 14-year-old. If you are mature for your age try "The Catcher in the Rye" maybe. Nice to see someone interested in reading instead of just getting their homework assignments answered.
