Answer 2

You haven't read much at all, have you? Read...

Legend!!!! By Marie Lu - AWESOME.

One flew over the cuckoo's nest

Once and Then - 2 books, 1 series

Dead Poet's Society

The Heaven Shop

Utopia - old but start of dystopian era of books :)

Adorkable

Paper Alice

Alice in Wonderland

Try some easy classics such as A Christmas Carol, Emma or Pride and Prejudice.



Shinigamis - what is that just out of interest?!



OOOH! Also...

The Switched Series - Switched, Torn and Ascend.

Twilight Series, pretty good but a little boring.

Secret Seven



One book you will love by the looks of what you read is: Between the Lines.



Happy reading! :)

Answer 3

Percy Jackson and the Olympians (book one): the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan! A fantastic book. It has some Greek mythology in it! It is very adventurous and funny too.



13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson. My favorite author! There is also a sequel. There is a twinge of romance in it but it isn't based on that romance. It is based on traveling and adventure!



Any book by James Patterson, especially:

Daniel X

the Maximum Ride series (my favorite book series!)

and

Witch and Wizard

Answer 4

How about the Gallagher Girl series by Ally Carter?



If you google it you'll get the plot better than I can explain it.



The first book in the series is called 'I'd Tell You I Love You But Then I'd Have To Kill You'



I know the title isn't appealing but just trust me, they're amazing and have loads of different genre's worked into them.

Answer 5

i like the series with tiffany aching by terry pratchett. they are called:

The wee free men

a hat full of sky

winter smith

and a new one called

i shall wear midnight.

i'm not sure what shinigami means but it's about a witch called tiffany and these little blue men (not smurfs) and other witches. it's not romantic and i don't think it has anything offencive to God in it, well it doesn't mention a God in it. if ur gonna read terry's books then don't read the adult ones e.g. the colour of magic, they r so hard to read!!!!



enjoy :)

Answer 6

Try the "The Series of Unfortunate Events" series by Lemony Snicket

Answer 7

Finding Violet Park by Jenny Valentine = this book is about a teenager who finds an urn with ashes in and his journey to find out about the deceased person they belong to.

Answer 8

Shiver ... Linger... Forever.

Twilight??

Divergent.

Unleashed.



I don't read anything other than fantasy books so I can't really help.

Divergent isn't a romance as such, more adventure and drama.. Should check it out, it's really really good.

Answer 9

The mortal instruments and the infernal devices by cassandrad clare. there is a part in the mortal instruments that you might not like but trust me by the end of the books you realise.

knife reble arrow by r janderson

Answer 10

some thing by potential of Sara Dessen. also try the Clique sequence, Gossip female, the a-list and the it-female. also, basically flow to the teenage e book aisle, and look at each of the MTV and Seventeen branded books, they are many times reliable.
