Hi! And welcome back to my blog. Today I have decided to write a list of books that I recommend for teenagers & teens after this has been requested by so many people! As a teenager myself, I have selected some of my favourite books that I have read which are suitable for this age category and also called ' YA' for young adults. If you are an advanced reader, then feel free to check out my adult book list which will be out soon as well!
As I am going to be mentioning over 20 books in my list, it will be difficult for me to go into detail on what each book is about, so instead I will split them into categories and you can search on the internet what each book is about based on the title or the name of an author that you recognise. Or the book may be in a category that you like! Also we all have different opinions so if you think that I have missed out any good books or you don't like the ones in my list then feel free to let me know! Additionally, if you go onto read any of them and like them, then let me know as well :)
If you like any of these books, then check out some of the authors' other books. I had to condense this list down so each book is by a different author, even though some of my favourite books are from a series or the author has equally amazing other stories.
