I agree that it would depend on what kind of book you like and what kind of book you're allowed. Here are some suggestions:
Socially significant: St. Iggy by K.L. Going
Fantasy: Tithe by Holly Black
Paranormal: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
Humor: Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison
General Fiction (with a little bit of social significance and fantasy thrown in): I am the Messenger (author's name escapes me)

If you like animals stories try; "Marley & Me" by John Grogan. It is a real life story about a family that gets a dog, a neurotic yellow Labrador retriever, and their life together. I read it and laughed most of the way through it. Good for teens or adults.

There's a new medieval fantasy series in hardcover that you might like. The title of the first episode is THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY. It's 445 pages of action, adventure, magic, mystery and mayhem. If you're a fan of Conan, LOTR or Wheel books, this is one you'll enjoy. A Hollywood producer has dubbed it, "BRAVEHEART meets LORD OF THE RINGS." (See other comments & reviews below.)
Publishers Weekly said in a rare STARRED Review:
"A fast pace, sly humor, amusing dialogue and a richly researched background lift Baxley's fantasy, the first of a new series set in medieval Britain. When Merlin's long-ago apprentice Kruzurk Makshare (aka the Boozer) receives a dreamlike visitation from the legendary mage, he learns he must destroy another former apprentice, the villainous Seed of Cerberus. To do so will require a visit to the demon-guarded Blackgloom Keep. Enter young Daynin McKinnon, who discovers a curious rune-covered headstone, which may be the fabled Blackgloom Bounty, and brings it to Kruz's attention. Kruz believes it will provide entry into the fortress, while Daynin hopes the sale of the stone will restore his family's fortunes. The colorful cast of good guys and ne'er-do-wells includes the Pictish ghost of Brude McAlpin liberated from his tomb, assorted pursuing Caledonians and a bemused Prior Bede, whose monastery serves as a hiding place for the Blackgloom Bounty. Suitable for fantasy enthusiasts of all ages."
Library Journal said:

If you are allowed to read science fiction for the project than read Eragon, it has all the elements that make for a good read.

It would be easier to recommend a book to you if you would tell us what kind of books you enjoy -- science fiction, adventure, fantasy, mystery, historical fiction, contemporary teen problem novels....?
