Does anyone know any good books for teenage girls about
a.) real drama
b.) pressures
c.) relashionships ( i dont mind if their homosexual relashionships either)
d.) abuse/rape
When you put a title, could you put the letter (A through D) that it applies to?
easy 5's people!

Want to answer more questions in the Miscellaneous category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
Okay... (b) "How My Private, Personal Journal Became A Bestseller" by Julia DeVillers. It's kind of about peer pressure, if that's what you mean. Like looking like models and stuff. It's really good anyways.
(a) & (c) "Flipped" by Wendelin van Draanen. Really good read. About two people whose views of each other keep changing over a course of seven years... one of my favorite books.

Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul 1,2, or 3 all of them deal wath A-D. Hope I helped.

Freaky Green Eyes (Amazing psychological thriller, probably a tie between D & A)
Annie's Baby (a diary account of a girl who got pregnant at like 14..ties in D, B, & A)
I heard gossip girls are pretty good but I don't know which letter that would apply to.

Gossip Girl= A,B,C
Laguna Beach: Life inside the bubble= A,B,C
Sorry, that's all i know.

Definitely read Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson... not just because it deals with a lot of the things you're asking about (pressure, rape, relationships) but because everyone should just read it.

Try this one. It's under C) Relationships and the differences between the sexes and those that are hapless. Let me know what you think of it. I know the author if you want to send a few questions about the book.
RUNNING THE BASES: Definitely Not A Book About Baseball. By Paul Kropp Publisher is Double Day. $13.95
"A lighthearted look at the issues of teenage dating: a funny book with some serious ideas beneath the surface. Alan Macklin has a simple goal - he wants a girl, some girl, any girl - but he hasn't a clue how to get started.
"When advice from his friend Jeremy proves unreliable, he decides to go right to the source - a girl he can trust. That girl teaches him everything he needs to know about dating, except for how to reach home base."
Maggie is quite the character she is like a teenage version of a publicist and agent. She tries to teach Alan how to act around females and get a date.
He screws up all the instructions etc. Meanwhile, she may have an alterior reason for trying to teach this poor sap all the tricks in a woman's arsenal to help out a boy.
Why is it she cannot get dates or boyfriend's easily herself and help him? It's a great book if you want to see how both boys and girls view relationships and how far you should go.

ABCD= THE TRUTH ABOUT DIAMONDS..by nicole richie!

Go Ask Alice is a really good book, and I think it pretty much applies to all the categories.
Chicken Soup books also apply to all the categories and are very interesting to read. There are a wholeeeee bunch of different type of topics in those books. Also, there are different types of Chicken Soup books. For example, there is a Chicken Soup for Teens On Love & Relationships. So basically that just focuses on your "C".
Also, any other real diaries (like Go Ask Alice) are REALLY good, and I highlyyy recommend them. They usually hit all the topics that you have mentioned (A through D). Here is a site that shows all of those diaries by anonymous teenagers. Just read the paragraph there, and it tells you the books and what they are about-

The Cliques are good books. Also the Gossip Girl books are very interesting.
One of my favorite books is Go Ask Alice. It's based on a true story. It was actually her diary. She started using drugs, running away. In the end, she dies.
