Saving...
I am 14, but i read on a college level. I love fantasy books, including your basic Harry Potter and Twilight. Other books I enjoyed were The Hunger Games, The Host, etc. I like sci-fi too. Any suggestions? (Btw, dont suggest classics, I’ve read most of those too, Shakespeare, Bronte, Wilde, London, etc)
I also do not enjoy books such as “Gossip Girl” etc. Fantasy, Science Fiction, MAYBE realistic fiction, if it’s really good. And i don’t mind reading a love story, but only if its very well written, and not…over detailed, if you know what I mean.

Have you tried “The It Girl” or “The Clique” they’re really fun to read.
If not you should also read Sarah Dessen books. She’s such a good writer.
I just read “Just Listen” and it was really good. “The Truth about Forever” which i’m currently reading isn’t bad eitherr.
but if you have to pick one Sarah Dessen book read “Someone Like You” That book was so amazing. =]
Go to a local college and visit their local books store. If you read on a college level, then going to a bookstore on a college campus will surely have the perfect books for you.
I hope I helped.
His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman is a great fantasy series.
I’ve also heard that the Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray is good, but I havent read them yet.
David Eddings, excellent author, a series of books, The Belgariad is either the name of the series or one of the book titles
Try “The Princess Bride” I know that sounds lame, but it’s an awesome story, very funny and satirical.
Ben Elton writes some fantasy books but some of them could almost come true so they’re quite provocative.
