I’m in 9th grade right now, and I am very intrigued by mythical creatures and fantasy type of fiction books, as I’m catching up on the Percy Jackson and Vampire’s Assistant books at the moment. Could anyone recomend a storyline that is atleast 2 or more books as in the main first one, then a certain amount of sequels to that story.

I’ll divide my choices by author

Cassandra Clare (I’m very much in love with this author’s work *woo-hoo*)
-The Mortal Instruments series
City of Bones
City of Ashes
City of Glass
City of Fallen Angels
City of Lost Soul
City of Heavenly Fire
-The Infernal Devices series
Clockwork Angel
Clockwork Prince
Clockwork Princess

Melissa Marr (The most poetic author I’ve ever read. Trust me, she weave her work to be beautiful without being too hard to read)
-The Wicked Lovely series
Wicked Lovely
Ink Exchange
Fragile Eternity
Radiant Shadow
Darkest Mercy

Rachelle Mead (Her story is so interesting I finish the whole series in 4 days. And it’s not twilight vampire kind. People who enjoy Twilight will enjoy this, and the good thing is that people who didn’t enjoy Twilight will enjoy her series.)
-The Vampire Academy series
Vampire Academy
Frostbite
Shadow Kiss
Blood Promise
Spirit Bound
Last Sacrifice

Suzanne Collins (I don’t know what to say about this author. Her work is just pure amazing. All of this and that idea mixing and becoming this extraordinaire masterpiece of her *weeee*)
-The Hunger Games series
The Hunger Games
Catching Fire
Mockingjay

I have a book report of a specific genre I need to do. Does anyone know of any horror/ scary historical fiction books for young adults? Preferrably that you liked.

Deep dark and dangerous by Mary Dowing Hann

I was wondering if there’s any good books that are about teens that had gotten an abortion and regretted it that are fiction.? Someone help please?

It’s not about abortion, however, After by Amy Efaw is a fantastic(but sad) book about a 15 year old girl who gives birth to baby and, not knowing what to do with it, disposes of the baby and all evidence in the dumpster near her house.
Definitely a quick read, but it’s worth it.

I spend too much time on the Internet. I am in year 11 now in UK which is the year where we have the most exams and it’s extremely significant since I want to be a doctor in the future. I like fiction books but I want to be able to read non-fiction books like textbooks in my spare time, spending hours reading them than on the Internet. How can I do this?

Find books on subjects you are interested in. If you like animals, pick up books about animals and true-life accounts of animal adventures. Read biographies and auto biographies on people you find interesting. If you like a certain sport, read books on the sports you like.

Go to your local library and ask the librarian to help you find books that will interst you. You can do the same at your local book store.

I have a project in my English class where we have to write 4 reports on a fiction book by an American author. He gave us a list but none of them appealed to me. I am into cars/ truck/ motorcycles etc. Does anyone know of any books that are fiction, American written and has to do with cars/ motorcycles? It also needs to be fairly advanced and 250+ pages.

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig.

I am just starting to get into fiction books and I want to read some of the best ones out there that are about con-artists. Does anyone know of a good book / series?

the Montmorency Series are something you might be interested in. It takes place in victorian London and is about a man who lives the life of a gentleman by day and robs people via the sewers by night. Its an easy read for someone who is just getting into reading. by Eleanor Updale

How to, not other fiction books.

I’ve found some but I’m reluctant to spend money on something without a second opinion.

It really depends on what sort of help you need…

I recommend the ‘Write Great Fiction’ series, which has a different books for several aspects of writing (plot, dialogue, character – you choose). This might be good if you have a particular weakness. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=write+great+fiction&x=0&y=0

‘Self Editing for Fiction Writers’ by Renni Browne and Dave King is a great one for just teaching you to write stronger prose in general. http://www.amazon.com/Self-Editing-Fiction-Writers-Second-Yourself/dp/0060545690/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313184532&sr=8-1

Or if you want a great analysis of what makes a story work, try ‘Story’ by Robert McKee. Note that this book is actually directed at screenwriters and uses movies as examples, but actually it’s a really great help for any kind of story, and has some amazing insight into meaning, theme, structure and character. http://www.amazon.com/Story-Substance-Structure-Principles-Screenwriting/dp/0413715604/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1313184623&sr=1-3

I have a historical fiction book report and time line due for my L/A class and i can`t think of any books to do it on.

I loved "Moccasin Trail" by Eloise Jarvis McGraw and "Rifles for Watie" by Harold Keith when I was around that age.

"Moccasin Trail" – A pioneer boy, brought up by Crow Indians, is reunited with his family and attempts to orient himself in the white man’s culture.

"Rifles for Watie" – A Civil War-era novel about a boy who enlisted in the Union Army and ends up a spy for them in the Confederate Army.

I really enjoy reading science fiction, but it’s often difficult to find good science fiction that isn’t too dark and that doesn’t contain sex. What are some good science fiction authors/books that aren’t dark and gloomy and that don’t have sexual content?

If you want optimistic sci-fi with near-zero explicit sexual content, I would advise you to stick to ‘Golden Age’ (1930s-50s) stories from authors such as (from Wikipedia):

Poul Anderson
Isaac Asimov
Alfred Bester
James Blish
Nelson S. Bond
Leigh Brackett
Ray Bradbury
Fredric Brown
Bertram Chandler
John Christopher
Arthur C. Clarke
Hal Clement
L. Sprague de Camp
Lester del Rey
Robert A. Heinlein
C. M. Kornbluth
Henry Kuttner
Fritz Leiber
Walter M. Miller, Jr.
C. L. Moore
Chad Oliver
Frederik Pohl
Ross Rocklynne
Eric Frank Russell
Clifford D. Simak
E.E. "Doc" Smith
Theodore Sturgeon
William Tenn
A. E. van Vogt
Jack Vance
John Wyndham

And even then that’s not a 100% reliable guarantee–you will still find the occasional, implied-but-discreetly-asterisked sexual situation, e.g. man and woman giggling/kissing, and then disappearing into a room and closing the door. Heinlein and Anderson (to name but two) were not particularly coy in this respect.

Although he is somewhat notorious for the chastity of his earlier writings, even Asimov managed to write a short story called ‘Playboy and the Slime God’, and one of his later ‘robot’ detective novels ("The Robots of Dawn") actually hinges on a sexual relationship between a woman and her robot servant (somewhat echoing one of his earlier short stories, "Satisfaction Guaranteed"). So there are a few for you to avoid.
