I am 16 and I need some good books to read. I have read stephenie meyer's books. I like classics and I have a pretty high reading level, but I want it to be clean and NOT crude or disgusting. I don't really like lots of romance.

If you still have time to read go to Amazon for "Lost from Atlantis Book 1" - Book 2 is coming out soon and Book 3 is written and in editing, it'll be out soon too.
"Death by Murder David Lindsay" you have to search that way. Lots of sex in that one.
And "Super Spaghetti."
They're all free on Kindle Unlimited for now, Google how to get a free trial. You can read it online, get a free Kindle phone app, or read it on your Kindle.

Look for Clive Cussler and Jack Du Brul. They write fascinating stories, adventure-type stuff with historical and scientific goodies thrown in. Laura Joh Rowland has a very good mystery series set in feudal Japan. There is a "Booklover's Mystery" series by Julie Kaewert - I've only read one so far, but I liked it.

If you're into like the fantasy genre, check into R.A. Salvatore and Robert Jordan.
"The Dark Tower" Series, by Stephen King was pretty cool, too... Or "The Talisman"...
