Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper.

***EDIT*** I FOUND A NEW FAVORTIE BOOK! "Hairstyles of the Damned" by Joe Meno

Smack was a really good book about kids living in England I believe. It deals with teenagers, "punks", squatting, and a bunch of other stuff. Unfortunately I didn't finish it because I didn't have the time. I read more than half of it and I enjoyed it. One of these days I plan on checking it back out and finishing it.

i would recommed The Clique Series...
]
Two of my most favorite books are Fight Club by Chuck Palahuniuk, and The Beach by Alex Garland. However, I don't think that those are too much like the books you listed, so I got you some recommendations.
The First Part Last by Angela Johnson
Alt Ed by Catherine Atkins
Acceleration by Graham Mcnamee
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
The Tattooed Girl by Joyce Carol Oates
]
This book might seem a little childish, but "Zink" is the best book I've ever read. It';s by Cherie Bennet. It's so moving, I recommend it to anyone. She also wrote a fabulous book called "Life in the Fat Lane," which I've heard was a really good book also.
Another author I recommend is Joan Bauer. She wrote "Hope Was Here" and "Backwater"
I bet you'd love them. Hope I helped!

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants <-- Awesome!
Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl <-- Sad, but it's a 100% true story.
The Harry Potter Series
Lord of the Rings
]
Blue is for Nighmares by Laurie Faria Stolarz is a really good book, i couldnt put it down, and there are 3 books after that in a series so if you like the first one then you should read the others. Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson is good, Cut by Patricia McCormick is also good, they're all easy read too. Rapsody by Elizabeth Haydon is good too, but thats more fantasy. and thats also a series. if you want any more suggestions, feel free to ask. hope i helped.

I recommend you read books like "lucas" which is about a guy who is judged without seeing the real him and the ending is shocking!Another book called Twists and Turns"which is a book about twins who live in the projects who suffer throughout the story.Another one is "The 7 Habits of highly effective teens"which tells you a lot of information you will need to know.Another one which also is very interesting it's called "Down these Mean Streets"basically it's about a boy who has a big temper and get's into a lot of trouble for it.

Well to the wonderful books, they are so many. Depending on your fav. Readings, will depend, so I’ll give some of my fav. That I’ve read recently.
1) Lord of the Rings by Tolkien (for advance readers)
2) The Dragon and the Thief by Gillian Bradshaw
3) The Egyptian Game by Zilpha Keatley Snyder (only if you like history; mainly Egypt)
4) C S Lewis’s Narnia (all ways fun)
5) The Warriors series by Erin Hunter (especially if you like cats)
I hope this helps you. let me know if it did.
Best of luck

well anything by gregory maguire is hard to put down, i mean its nothing like go ask alice, its kind of a fantasy but its like less fantastic and farfetched if you know what i mean, he wrote wicked (bestseller) its like wizard of oz as told by the wicked witch but not a kids book like wizard of oz is, plus he wrote a bunch of other good books... i dont know if you're into like mysteries and horror but if u are, read any stephen king book

Well, I've had a lot that I could not put down... I'll list a few from recent times and my past...
1. A life God Rewards for Teens. Mainly, I just read that to get me unsuicidal...
2. Sabriel. Garth Nix. If you are entigued by the dead, then read it.
3. The Seventh Tower. Same guy. Really easy read, though it is 6 books long. Yet, it is one of the best stories I've ever read.
4. The Lord of The Rings. Frodo!
5. The Dark is Rising Sequence- Susan Cooper. The main book in the sequence remains the best story I've ever read.
Just some ideas... But I'm a fantasy guy, you may want other stories.
