EDIT:
Also try Twilight and the other books in the series by Stephanie Meyers.

"Stardust" by Neil Gaiman (The movie did it no justice)
"Little Brother" by Cory Doctorow (great thriller, and very timely. Best of all, you can download it for free at craphound.com/littlebrother)
"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams (funny. nuff said.)
"Good Omens" by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman (also funny)
"The Crying of Lot 49" by Thomas Pynchon (classic conspiracy-theory book. also very funny.)

the best is to go for contempory literature like the books:
lord of the flies
catcher in the rye
king dork
and more
also the clique books are really dramtic so i guess thata's good if you want more books just ask me!

That depends on the genre(s) you prefer. The Heart Shaped Box by Jpe Hill is really good if you like suspense/horror. Susan Mallory is good if you like light hearted romance. Grab a bestseller list at the local bookstore and try a couple. If you don't want to spend a lot find a used bookstore in your area. You can also try www.paperbackswap.com You can also try the PenDragon series. Most teens like those.

i agree with the person below. Scott Westerfeld is an amazing author i recommend his series "Uglies". Although they are a bit longer than 200 pages, the story is so good that you wont be able to put it down. im pretty sure ull love it nomatter what you like because the book has a little bit of everything in it - drama, suspense, romance, action etc...

That is a VERY vague question. How will you knw what you like automatically?
Anyway, I recommend:
Authors:
- Scott Westerfeld
- Sarah Dessen
- Kurt Vonnegut
Books:
- "It's Kind of a Funny Story" by Ned Vizzini.
- "Scrambled Eggs at Midnight" by Brad Barkley & Heather Hepler.
- Go Ask Alice
- "Anatomy of a Boyfriend" by Daria Snadowsky.
- "Forever" by Judy Blume
- "Slam" by Nick Hornby.
- "Prep" by Curtis Sittenfeld.
- "My Most Excellent Year" by Steve Kluger.
Also, browse the young adult/nonfiction/fiction/whatever you like section of your library or bookstore. I guarantee that you'll find something that interests you.
