What are some recommended books?

I have heard that Twilight is good, but i'm not sure it's for me...i might try it out though...anything else?


i'm in high school and don't mind if the book is for older or younger audiences


to give you an idea, some of my favorite books are:


dan brown books, like angels and demons


harry potter books


perks of being a wallflower


i know why the caged bird sings


tuesdays with morrie


night


the outsiders


the catcher in the rye


it can be fiction, nonfiction....an enjoyable, meaningful read?

What are some recommended books?
If you've read Tuesdays with Morrie I assume you've read The Five People You Meet in Heaven?





My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult asks some interesting moral questions and should get you thinking.





As someone else said, The Color Purple is a wonderful novel and Possessing the Secret of Joy which goes into more detail about one of the characters in another that asks some interesting moral questions.





How about something like On The Road by Jack Kerouac? I found him to be extremely offensive, particularly about women but it is worth a read.
Reply:Lord of the Rings, Eargon, Bible,
Reply:I also LOVE the Twilight Series!!!!!!!!!!! Go Edward!!! jk!





Here are some books that I enjoyed:

Reply:The Kite Runner by khaled hosseini was a fantastic book, although quite dark, and the next book by him, a thousand splendid suns was also quite interesting.
