Shantaram is a 2003 novel based on real events written by Gregory David Roberts, a convicted Australian bank robber and heroin addict who escaped from Pentridge Prison and fled to India where he lived for 10 years. freaking awesome book
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Candide, Roughing It.
Most libraries and will have lots of suggestions and many can be accessed online.
Here’s a couple of examples of lists from libraries and schools:

im going into 9th, too. i love all of laurie halse anderson’s book. they’re REALLY good. speak is especially good, but so is wintergirls. the house of night series is pretty good. there are a lot of books so it keeps you occupied. oh, the georgia nicholson series is really really funny. those are good books, starting with “angus, thongs, and full-frontal snogging.” if you’re a girl. are you a girl or a boy?
Thanks i will definitely add those books to my list and look through those websites :)

i have heard of this. what is it about?
Stravaganza.
It’s a 3 book series, about a boy with brain cancer who is transported into a mirror world of medieval Italy. Give it a chance at least through the first book, it’s truly spectacular. Also, anything by Donna Jo Napoli is exquisite.
On the Road by Jack Kerouac.
Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer.
First two that popped into my head.

Lol, apparently there are 5 books now, which means I have my work cut out for me to finish the last two. I never knew they came out. >->;;
Here’s the title list.
# 1 City of Masks
# 2 City of Stars
# 3 City of Flowers
# 4 City of Secrets

thank you i shall get started on these right away because when i was reading them last they were very interesting =)
Anne Bishop’s Black Jewels series. Great books, hard to keep up with, but extremely well written. Also, her Tir Alainn trilogy.
If you havent already read them, Harry Potter, Eragon Inheritance trilogy, and the Twilight series.

i’ve read all of the bottom 3 (well i’m in the middle of Brisinger) but i’ll try the others thanks =)
Black jewels is romantic like twilight, but as complex and dark as Harry potter. If you liked those two, you’ll love it.
