2. I see that some of these books aren't even really YA books. Crime and Punishment? Green Eggs and Ham? Seriously???

Not to mention the fact that it's actually well-written.
Even my English teacher agrees. :P
But this is just my opinion...

i know! i completely agree with you. the spells actually mean something, kinda. yeah jk rowling is an awesome author. stephenie meyer is ok but not as good as her, i think.

The only other teen series I've read are the Gemma Doyle Trilogy (search "A Great and Terrible Beauty") and The Princess Diaries.
I recommend them both, although I haven't actually finished the latter. :)

im with you on this one, i mean seriously people, twilight is so hyped!!! I admit its an enjoyable read
but not an excellent one. Oh and since when did The Little Prine by Antoine de Saint exupery and charlie and the chocolate facory become a YA book. Who made this list?!?! I swear if i find you ill teach you how to categorize books well by dragging you around a library and making you google till your eyes hurt! ehem... sorry 'bout that

I agree.. I think the first 3 books of twilight are pretty much the same but the 4th is good, not because Edward and Bella end up together but because it actually has a story line!

Are you daft? I mean, seriously. What exactly makes Twilight better than Harry Potter.. Oh and, Caralyn? I've read both.
![Katie](https://images.gr-assets.com/users/1660101740p1/1767990.jpg)
And Twilight/HP? Seriously, it should be a no-brainer which is better for young adults. Twilight teaches them that it's okay to have an unhealthy obsession with another teen... while Harry Potter displays themes like honor, trust, loyalty, friendship, and sacrifice...
Just my two cents ;)

Agreed :) Harry potter is lifee !

Of course, I can say the same for the Harry Potter series. If a child has made it through all of those long, engrossing novels, they can then tackle just about anything.
