Diana Wynne Jones--Howl's Moving Castle, Fire and Hemlock, and many, many more!
Lloyd Alexander--the Prydain Chronicles (The Book of Three, The Black Cauldron), Vesper Holly series, Westmark quartet
Ray Bradbury--The Illustrated Man, the Halloween Tree, the Martian Chronicles, Farenheit 451 (I had to do a project about an author when I was 13, and I chose Bradbury).
As previously said, Orson Scott Card! He's a great choice, I've only read Ender's Game, but it was an awesome book.

uglies, pretties, special, and extras by Scott Westerfeld. )Westerfeld has also written the midnighters series and other books. I'm not sure on all of them, and i've only read uglies, pretties, specials, and extras. but i hope the following helps...)
it's a series (really it's a trilogy - then extras is a continuation) set in the future, w/a society focused on beauty. when a girl turns 16, she undergo's surgery to turn from a "ugly" to a "pretty". Before she meets Shay, Tally is beyond ready to get the surgery, but now Tally must decide whether to undergo surgery or - listen to her friend Shay's radical ideas about dodging the surgery. All of the adventures Tally goes on leads her to discover a dangerous truth behind the pretty-making surgery... The story continues in pretties and specials...but i won't ruin it for you.
In extras, the series continues, but focuses on a different character - Aya, a few years after Tally. Now society is focused on fame - each person has a face rank from 1 to 1 million. Aya's face rank is 451,369. Not exactly happy-making. In this society 'kicking" a big story(or feed) boosts your face rank. Aya is determined to boost her face rank, and goes undercover to get footage to kick a feed. what she discovers though - is way more than she intended to get into...

Choose MEG CABOT because she has written more then 10 books way more, and all her books rock. I have read 10 books of hers and that is not ever half og the books. She has a couple of series. You should read "the mediarot series" "1800 where r u series" and you there are others. Enjoy

Some of the best books I've ever read were by S.E. Hinton. She's written a bunch of teen books, the best of which including The Outsiders, That Was Then This Is Now, and Rumblefish. Her works are classic and still very popular, so it should be easy to find information about her and her other novels.
