The best book is Audrey Wait by Robin Benway. Like, honestly it has everything it in. Drama, romantic love, laughing, crying, and it feels like your there. I had this book recommended to me and I read it and I was like OMG!!!!!!!! I LOVE IT. I read that book in 3 days…and i NEVER read. Sure I read books before but it is not my hobby. Honestly, 100% THE best book in the World. Even if you don’t read it now. I recommend you read it sometime in your life because I know you’ll enjoy it just as much as I did.
It is about a young girl who breaks up with a boy who owns a band and something EXTREME HAPPENS. Use your imagination to geuss JUST WHAT COULD POSSIBLY HAPPEN..cuz ya I deff don’t wanna say TO much because I know you’ll enjoy the excitement and twists and turns it takes.
ENJOY:)!

Nokosee: Rise of the New Seminole by Micco Mann. Although it has teenage protagonists, it is surprisingly "adult" in its depiction of violence and teen sex yet it has little or no profanity. It’s basically a contemporary teenage Tarzan and Jane tale set in the Everglades. Lots of action for the boys and romance for the girls. The story is told through the voice of a teenage girl punk rocker named Stormy Jones. Although I’m a Twilight fan, I related more to Nokosee because of his vulnerability and total lack of any superhuman powers (although he can kill with his little finger thanks to his crazy dad’s plan to groom him into the first of the New Seminole who will wage an eco-war on the "Outside"). You can read the first two chapters on the Kobo Books site plus the opening pages of all the other chapters. That’s how I discovered it.

The Liar’s Club by Mary Karr (http://bit.ly/LiarsClub) and her follow-up memoir Cherry (http://bit.ly/CherryKarr). Both are wonderful books about being girls growing up in rural Texas written by one of America’s best writers.
