What books/authors do your teenagers enjoy?

[HoHoHolyCow]

I work in a library and we're trying to enourage more teenage/YA borrowers.

It would be great to know which book series/authors your teenagers enjoy reading.

Thanks!

I made a 4-page list of what I consider to be well-written YA books, with comments. Would you like me to send you a copy? (Not sure if this can be done by PM but could try.) I wrote it specifically for librarians!

@leonardthelemming yes please! That would be great. I can pm you my email address?

Yes, that would work.

I’m a big YA reader and there are some of the bigger names that have quite a few popular books. Then of course there’s Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Twilight, all of which are old but still quite popular.

And The Raven Boys! Can’t forget The Raven Boys! Great series!

@leonardthelemming I don't suppose I could be so bold as to ask for a copy of your list too? My Dd devours books and I'd love some recommendations that I can order from the library.

I will ask her later for her recommendations too.

My teen loves any books about zombies and horror.
He’s actually reading a James Herbert book at the moment.
He’s also enjoyed Maze runner and Hunger Games.

I'm happy to send it but it looks as though it will have to be by email.
PM me?

Lemming, please can we see your list?

Thanks so much everyone!

It's a 4-page pdf, so will have to be sent by email. If anyone wants a copy just PM me an email address to send it to.

I should perhaps point out that the authors in the list are Indie authors who in my opinion deserve to be better known. And they mostly publish eBooks.
I started reading YA on my Kindle and found there are some awful books out there. My list is an attempt to make the better ones better known.

I've just checked and it's actually a seven-page pdf...

off the top of my head
Robert Harris
Anthony Horowitz
Tom Clancy

Also a couple of George Orwell books.

A book by Philip K dick. Blade runner was based on it.

properly others too, but I only know the ones he talks about.
