  1. Harry Potter  J.K. Rowling

    The Princess Bride (abridged version) - William Goldman ( adventure )

    The Heavenly Surrender - Marcia Lynn McClure ( romance but not bad )

    13 Little Blue Envelopes - Maureen Johnson (?)

    Once Upon a Time series (AMAZING!)


  2. The Little Prince, Jonathan Livingston Seagull,Jack & The Beanstalk

  3. the penderwicks, Brisingr by Christopher Paolini, House of Night Series by P. C. Cast; Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead; Peter and the Shadow Thieves by Dave Barry, Vampire Kisses Series by Ellen Schreiber

  4. Omg! you read the secret life of bees, i have to read that book [school assignment] ah do a book report for me lol =) i don't know if you might like these types of books but these three are my fave books that i have read:

    1) Go Ask Alice

    2) Annie's Baby

    3) Don't you dare read this Mrs. Dunphrey  

  5. You could try the Midnighters trilogy by Scott Westerfeld, or the Host by Stephenie Meyer since you like her other books (I know it's adult, but it has no inappropriate content, though it is a bit scary at times; I'm thirteen, and I read and loved it).  There's also the Vampire Kisses series if you like vampires; it's very Gothic, but the only book that's scary at all is the fifth one.  The Hollow Kingdom trilogy by Clare Dunkle (sp?) doesn't have any vampires in it, but it's still a really good young adult fantasy series.

    Happy reading.  I hope this helps.
