Keris's favourite young adult books of 2007

Yesterday, I told you about my five favourite non-fiction books of 2007, now it's Young Adult's turn.

5. Jinx by Meg Cabot

Fun, funny, charming and totally involving. I'm so impressed at Meg Cabot's seemingly inexhaustible supply of ideas and Jinx is another great one.

4. Forever In Blue by Ann Brashares

This book is intelligent, wise, funny, inspiring and just gorgeous. I'm so sorry it's the last in the series, but I can't wait to see what Brashares does next.

3. Good Girls by Laura Ruby

When I got to the end of Good Girls, I wanted to go back and start reading it again. Despite being entertaining and sweet, it's also an important book and one that teens should read and pass around (yes, even to their parents).

2. A Bad Boy Can Be Good for A Girl by Tanya Lee Stone

I flew through this book, in fact I read it in one sitting. It’s clever, funny, though-provoking, inspiring, in fact, I think it should be compulsory reading for all teenage girls (and probably boys too).

1. I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You by Ally Carter

I adored this book. For some reason, quite a lot of YA books seem to be part of a series and so you finish the book knowing that you're going to have to read another to learn everything you want to know. That wasn't the case with I'd Tell You I Love You... - it was one of the most satisfying books I've read for ages (Young Adult or otherwise).
