I liked Catcher in the Rye and Perks of being a Wallflower. Are there any similar books or ones that are just as good?

I suggest that you read The Wasp Factory or Complicity by Ian Banks. My English teacher suggested that I read the catcher in the rye, and that the Ian Banks books are as good and on the same sort of level as a Catcher in The Rye... all of them are on my reading list for A-level english.. Hope you find sometihng you enjoy!

The Stranger by Albert Camus will be really good if you liked Catcher in the Rye.

If you liked *Catcher in the Rye*, try *On the Road*, or *Invisible Man*. Somehow, both end up in the same part of my brain as *Catcher*.

try reading the plays of Jean Paul Sartre. Talks about the dilemma of life and the "hellness" of living it.
1. No Exit
2. The Plague

i reccommend reading Lucy Maud Montgomery's books and ann rinaldi's historic fiction....both are truly phenomenal. this summer, i read The Seamstress which was another fantastic book...it was about a young individual's experience during the holocaust. good luck on your search to finding a good book!

Try Jane Eyre or paradise Lane, both really good books but from very different centuries.

Try "Water for Elephants" by Sarah Gruen. I think you will like it.
