    A friend of mine just recommended SIDDHARTHA, by Hermann Hesse, to me. She said it's about a guy and his life experience in finding out who he really is, and what he believes in. I think he also meets Budda while he is still alive.

    I'm looking for it this weekend, so I don't know for a fact if I like it yet, but she says it's great.
    *EDIT*
    I would think it has his teenage years in it as well, though I'm not sure

    Two of my personal favorites are Bridge to Terabithia(5th grade reading level but I enjoyed it very much as an adult!) and The Great Gatsby(very "days of our lives-ish")

    Hmm... well:
    If you want dramas:"Harmless"... "sloppy firsts" and the sequal "second helpings","Swollen","Playing it cool", "bottled up", "go ask alice" "Hard love", "all the way", "candy", "gingerbread", the sequal to it "shimp" "the alice rules", "Flipped" "scrambled eggs at midnight"
    If you want historical Fiction: "Bastard out of carolina" its more drama... but its classified as historical fiction
    If you want adventure: "Bloody Jack", "Curse of the blue tattoo", "under the jolly roger", "in the belly of the bloodhound", and "mississippi Jack" are all in the same series and really good
    And if you want fantasy: "eragon" (much better than the movie) and "eldest" then there's "the named", "the dark", and "the key" their a trilogy (I HATE fantasy but found all of those pretty good)

    What can I say I like to read a lot?
