Question Posted Monday January 1 2007, 12:00 am

I have a cousin who's 15. Her birthday is coming up and she loves to read. She's into fantasy books, adventure and romance type books. Is there any books or series you would recomend. PLEASE help! I have absolutely no clue what to get her.

i just read three AMAZING books that you should look into.

M or F? -- by Lisa Papademetriou
Elsewhere -- by Gabrielle Zevin
Vegan Virgin Valentine -- by Carolyn Mackler

they are so good. they are girly books based off the lives of an average teenage girl.

Oh, everyone already mentioned good ones

His Dark Materials, by Phillip Pullman (not so much romance, but fantasy/adventure)
Tamora Pierce is great! The Alanna series is wonderful (fantasy, adventure and romance geared towards a young adult)
Sharon Shinn has an angel series which I absolutely enjoy. Fantasy, adventure and romance but its a little bit older reading than Tamora Pierce.
Jenny Lykins has a time travel romance which is also fun.

I would say Harry Potter, but that's obvious and she's probably already read it. Try picking up some books by Tamora Pierce. The first book of her Tortall series is Alanna: The First Adventure, which is a series I highly recommend for any young girl that likes to read. You could also get her the Princess Diaries, if she hasn't read those already.

My step brother is really into magical fantasy type books also.

He read that whole Eragon series and the Harry Potter series.

Sorry if that doesn't help.

Maybe you could just go to the fantasy section in Barnes and Noble, pick out a book you think she would like and attach it to a gift card.

i really like the series by Phillip Pullman called "his dark materials" (its fantasy by the way)
the first book of the series is "the golden compass", then "the subtle knife" and i forget the last one...but they were really good!

Romance Novels - Author Nicholas Sparks books are definatley romantic, his books "the Notebook" and "Message in a bottle" were made into movies.

Fantasy/Adventure - Harry Potter

I also suggest a Barnes & Noble gift card, or Borders gift card. That way she can get whatever book she wants and you know she'll like it because she picked it out :]
