Books. It's not what most teenagers of our generation find as a fulfilling way to fill their free time, but as ]Carl Sagan once said, "A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic". Growing up, I was always an avid reader and made frequent visits to my local library and local Borders and would always fill my basket with everything from the Bailey School Kids to Magic Tree House. Here is a list of my personal recommendations for Young Adult novels!
