If you're between 12 and 18 and into video games and best friends stories I think you might like my novel GAMEPLAYER: The Genesis Portal.
GAMEPLAYER follows the adventures of Nine-dog, Gator and Louie; three racially diverse buddies growing up in the skateboarding, video gaming obsessed Santa Monica, California beach life-style.
Their lives revolve around school, skateboarding and video gaming until a bizarre encounter with a run amuck video game propels them into a deadly world of terror, murder and intrigue.
It's available at the normal online sites like amazon, B&N, Borders, etc. and as an ebook on mobipocket.com.
You can check it out further and read the prologue on my site www.myspace.com/gameplayerbook.
Not meant as a commercial just a suggestion,

My favorite book in 8th was "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". Utterly fantastic, despite being a bit raw at times.
By the way, "The Giver" is by Lois Lowry. A good book, yes, but I read it in 4th and was pretty tired of it in 8th.

best book we read this year was "the giver"
want to say it was by conrad richter, but that could be wrong
you also cannot go wrong with any of s.e. hinton's books (the outsiders, that was then, this is now, rumble fish are a few)
