Here is what i like:
I am a mature 15 y/o, I like Historical Fiction, Historical Romance, Romance novels, most Fiction,and books about Titanic and horses. I DO NOT LIKE future, over the top fantasy (except Harry Potter), horror books (except stephan king) and Sci Fi. I read adult books w/ adult content. I read at a 12th grade reading level. My mother lets me read pretty much whatever I want really. Here is a little bit of what I've read....
Twilight ( I didn't really like them)
Harry Potter
Ink Heart Books
Gemma Doyle books
All of Philippa Gregory's books
All of Jodi Picoult's books
All of Ellen Hopkin's books
All of James Patterson's Alex Cross books (i have no interest in reading the others)
The Horse whisperer
Pillars of the Earth
The Lovely Bones, Lucky, and Almost Moon
Oliver, The Christmas Carol, Bleak House, and David Copperfield
OF Mice and men, and the grapes of Wrath
Little Women
Agatha Christie books
Pretty Little Liars series
Nicholas Sparks
Stephen King
and The shopaholic books.
I have read the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon.
I am currently reading A Time to Kill by John Grisham.
Please no pointless teen books, they are good on occasion but I would like something w/ substance. Thanks!Book Suggestions please, :)?
Nora Roberts is one of my favorite authors and I started reading her around your age. She writes romances that usually are suspense and romance together. Some I suggest are: The Key Trilogy, The Dream Trilogy, Montana Sky, Carolina Moon, Three Sisters Island Trilogy, and The Donovan Trilogy.
Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich- hilarious series about a female who becomes a bounty hunter because she needs a job. She meets some characters lol. A great read.
Luanne Rice- romance
Beach Girls
Dance with me
Angels All Around Town
Dream Country
Sue Grafton's Alphabet series
P.s. I love you by Cecilia Ahern
Star by Danielle Steele
Laura Griffin- suspense
One Last Breath
One Wrong Step
Thread of Fear
Whisper of Warning
Untraceable
If you haven't already read them, I suggest Number the Stars by Lois Duncan and The Upstairs Room by Johanna Reiss. They are YA war-era books but they are both very good reads.
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. A classic.Book Suggestions please, :)?
Read the "True to The Game" Series, its a mystery/crime drama, its GREAT!!! im 15 too and dont read that much but when i do its crime/dramas also From Pieces to Weight was a great book that will keep you reading from beginning to end i highly recomend them even if your not a crime/drama fan they will make you one i garuntee it
The Beautiful and the Damned - by: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Flappers and Philosophers - by: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Bridget Jones' Diary - by: Helen Fielding
The Eight - by: Katherine Neville
Kushiel's Dart - by: Jacqueline Carey (warning: this one is historical fiction of a fantasy world and has lots of sexual things in it. I recommend because it was very well written)
Pride and Prejudice - by: Jane Austin
Persuasion - by: Jane Austin
The Bad Place - by: Dean Koontz (Will remind you a bit of Stephen King but better.)
The Fall of the House of Usher - by: Edgar Allen Poe
Enchantment - by: Orson Scot Card (Not really fantasy, but involves a little bit of fantasy elements. Mostly a romance.)
Series of Unfortunate Events - by: Lemony Snicket (Yes it's a kids series but it's more sophisticated the way Potter is)
Illusions - by: Richard Bach (I'd recommend everyone to read this.)
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal - by: Christopher Moore (this one is a parody about historical events. It's hysterical.)
The Witch of Blackbird Pond - by: Elizabeth George Speare
Gone With the Wind - by: Margaret Mitchel
Ghosts I Have Been - by: Richard Peck (It's a little young for you maybe but a good read)
And if you're ever willing to read science fiction - Ender's Game - by: Orson Scot Card, is probably the best I've ever read.
Hope you enjoy some of my favorites. Keep reading. :)Book Suggestions please, :)?
To Kill a Mockingbird
House on Mango Street
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Their all very good books with different styles. I love To Kill a Mockingbird! Everyone should read it atleast once! None of these are very long, either!
Hope this helps!

Nokosee: Rise of the New Seminole by Micco Mann. It has the defiant voice of a 17 year old girl who manages to overcome everything thrown at her in the course of the novel which is a lot-- and she does it in a way that would make all girls proud-- not in a superhuman way or through the assistance of some heroic act of a man but via her own means.

Cherry by Mary Karr. A memoir about teens, sex, drugs and growing up in rural Texas as told through the gritty, beautiful prose of one of America's best writers. It's a book every teen girl should read. If the opening paragraph doesn't do it for you, nothing will (you can read it on the Amazon link below).

The Liar's Club by Mary Karr. Another moving memoir recounting her earlier years (you should probably read this one first and then Cherry).

Think of this as Greek mythology lite (less gods, more filling): The King Must Die by Mary Renault. Set in ancient Greece it follows Theseus on a journey of discovery while painting a vivid picture of the times. Loved the descriptions of young uninhibited Greeks running buck naked up hills and through forests and making love among the flowers. The scenes of naked teens jumping bulls with back flips cries out for a cinematic interpretation. Ms. Renault's written a series of historical novels set in this period and all of them are so worthy.
