65. The Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix
66. The Concubine's Daughter by Pai Kit Fai For Adventure I suggest Bloody Jack by, LA Meyer its a series but is very fun. Also Margaret Haddix Shadow Children Series.
Any book from Sarah Dessen Laurie Halse Anderson so you get a good feel for the Teen Angst section.(think Jodi Picoult for YA)
Fantasy- Terry Pratchett Neil Gaim ... I recommend Margaret Peterson Haddix’s dystopian Shadow Children series. Here is a review of the first book, Among the Hidden: http://liberty4kids.blogspot.com/2008/10/book-review-among-hidden.html
I finished Heaven looks a lot like the Mall, and i liked it.
23. Takeoffs and Landings by Margaret Peterson Haddix I have to say, so far i havent liked this one as much as her other books, but then again im only on page 27, so i maybe (i hope) it wil get better I finished Heaven looks a lot like the Mall, and i liked it.

Silve ... ... Apprentice series by John Flanagan. I enjoyed it myself. Another great series is the Shadow Childrenseries by Margaret Peterson Haddix. Both of these series are great reads for young and "older" alike. Margaret Haddix writes some terrific books - some science fiction, some contemporary - that are popular with all sorts of readers. Many of them are relatively short, and non-intimidating. The Shadow Childen series - Among the Hidden, et. al. - will hook them and keep them moving from book ... ... ples
