Try the Lemony Snicket Series books. My daughter loved those.

The Girl who Owned a City by O.T. Nelson ---- back of the book reads "A killing virus has swept the earth, sparing only children through the age of twelve. There is chaos everywhere, even in formely prosperous mid-America. Gangs and fierce armies of children begin to form almost immediately. It would be the same for the children on Grand Avenue but for Lisa, a yen-year-old girl who becomes their leader. Because of Lisa, they have food, even toys, in abundance. And now they can protect themselves from the fierce gangs that roam the neighborhoods. But for how long? Then Lisa conceives the idea of a fortress, a city in which the children could live safely and happily always, and she intends to lead them there." I read it when I was about twelve, and have just recently bought it as a nostalgic re-read. You'll enjoy it.

For a girl I would recommend "Shug" by Jenny Hahn or "I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have To Kill You by Alley Carter.
For a boy I would recommend the Pendragon books by D.J. MacHale or "Ranger's Apprentice" by John Flanagan.

Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret--by Judy Blume...excellent book for a young lady about your age. It's about some girls about your age and how they cope with growing up and turning into young women.
