I am 13 years old and a readaholic. It's the summer and I really need some good books to read. I love *appropriate* teen romance and fantasy like Harry Potter. Please, if you can give me the author's name and a little description of the book for me that'd be great. Thanks sooooooo much!

Hmm.. Books. I, as I am called by my friends, a bookworm. I love reading and guess what? I am a teen too. I am 15 and I started reading since I was 11. As a start, I started by reading the legendary Harry Potter series and I am still in anticipation of the final book (believe me it is good and I still like it). Now, I am into big stuff for big people, like, Jeffrey Archer, Agatha Christie, Sidney Sheldon, Michael Collins, Stephen King, John Grisham, Dan Brown and all these artistic people. There is a book by John Grisham, which is called “The Street Lawyer”, it is out of the ordinary, if u really like reading then u would like it. I am sure that, at your age, these books would literally make u drool over the book from tediousness, but u asked for it. Give it a try.
Anyway, here is a list of books:-
Gone With the wind, To kill a mocking bird, The fourth estate, The testament, A murder is announced, Sleeping murder, The Brethren, Everything’s Eventual, Skipping Christmas, State of fear, The Broker and much more.
By the way these are novels, I don’t expect u read Winnie the pooh anymore hehe. Have fun.

Anything by Betty Smith (Tree Grows in Brooklyn was great). The time frame is 1910's or so - usually in New York. Usually about a young girl like you.
Happy Reading and I hope you get lots of suggestions.

Give King Fortis the Brave a try. If you like Harry Potter, you'll love it.

How about "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" series. There are 3 books in the series. as far as I know. They are very good. And then after reading them, you can rent the movie!

One that i liked is Northern Lights, cant remember author.
Another is Brenden Chase (more of an english book but about three boys who run off and live in the forest like Robin Hood and his band.)
If you find any good ones let me know...I will need more books sometime!!
