I switched to writing YA (Young Adult) because I realized they were the books I was picking up most often to read for pure pleasure.

Some current favorites:

The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau Banks by E. Lockhart

Marcelo in the Real World by Francisco X. Stork

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

Divergent by Veronica Roth

Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson

Sweethearts by Sara Zarr

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
