Award Winning Books for Teens
New books are being published for teens and young adults all the time, but the ones given the most publicity are not always the best. If you don't have much time to browse or read reviews, it tends to be a safe bet to pick award-winning books for teens that have already been quality checked by judging panels of librarians and other experts.
Realistic Fiction
Realistic fiction depicts situations that could happen in real life, with authentic characters who react in a believable way.
