Swan Song, by Robert MacCammon. On the surface, it is a book about the aftermath of nuclear war (so its pretty cool with the missiles and then stuff blowing up and people becoming deformed and mutants...), but its actually so much more. It shows the determination of the human spirit, the innate kindness and love we have inside all of us, and the will to make our future a brighter place. Wonderful plot - real genuine characters that are totally believable - 900+ pages of wonder.
I have read this book probably 10 times and I get something else out of it each time I re-read it. Definitely check it out.

Twilight- Stephenie Meyer
Also the second part of twilight is New Moon

catcher in the rye-j.d. salinger
white oleander-
the life of pi
wicked-gregory macguire
mirror mirror-gregory macguire
the shopaholic series-sophie kinsella
geek love-
this is a pretty good variety, since i'm not sure what you might like!
some of them may be a bit older than a 9th grader, but that's o.k. b/c as far as i'm concerned....if you can read it, then you're old enough to read it:)
take care.
