Recommend any books?

Question

I like books about love with a little adventure.. such as the Noughts and Crosses series, The Luxe series and the Twilight Saga.

I really don't like reading books about teenage girls who are worried about getting fat and only care about being the prettiest girl in high school. Yuck. I like the books to have an adventure and conflict that is more complicated and deep than just going from unpopular and popular in school.

Hopefully you know what I mean...Any recommendations?

Im currently in love with the Luxe series so anything similar to that would be great!

See, you are exactly like me. I hate all the regular teen books where the title is simply "OMG!" and its about mindless gossip. I mean, dont' we get enough of that at school, so why do we need to read about it? I love adventure! And a little romance is ok. All of these books are fantastic, I really enjoyed them all. Plus, they fit your criteria. So definately check these out, they are awesome reads! Good luck, and happy reading :]

Answer 3

I like "Blood & Chocolate" by Annette Curtis Klause- I love the book, but I've heard the movie is waaay different.

Also, the Ruby Olliver novels ("The Boyfriend List" & "The Boy Book") by E. Lockhart- they're good & funny and completely believable. There aren't about some one getting all mega- popular or whatever, not at all; actually kinda the opposite. They're about finding yourself.

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series by Anne Brashares is really great too.

Answer 6

i like the artemis fowl series because it has intellect and aweesome twists and irish humor! nothing better than an irish billionaire genius with a huge bodygurad!  it has fantasy if you like that kind of stuff. but still rooted in modern times. that love thing comes with being a teenager and hormones.  

Also there's the Eragon series teh first two books are out but since it's a trilogy, there's a third book but i dont't know where. don't pay attention to the movie based on teh book; the only thing good about it was that actor Garrett Hedlund...

There's also a book called Scar NIght. it has to do with fallen angels and death and battle and is kinda funny (has modern humor) it's really adventurous and dark.
