i want to get my friend a book for christmas, and i want it to be a really good one. he's 18, and doesnt read very much at all. i want to get him something he would enjoy reading. a walk to remember is one of his favorites, so maybe something like that. or like the perks of being a wallflower. something along those lines. thank you.

If you like reading non-fiction, about what goes on nowadays - I recommend these two -
1) "Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader"
written by Bradley K. Martin
2) "Rogue Regime"
written by Jasper Becker
These two well-written books give an insight about the North Korean Government.
Fiction?
Try all the books written by Clive Cussler (mystery/adventure/drama type). I would suggest you start the books from the first; some of the story lines tend to follow into subsequent novels.
The hero is Dirk Pitt, with his sidekick Al Giordino. These fiction books by Clive Cussler are well-written.

Go to Amazon.com and type in A Walk to Remember...it should then give you "more books like this one". That would give you an idea...
