Crank, Speak, and What Happened to Cass McBride are such good books and also my favorites :]
Speak, Cut, and Thirteen Reasons Why are wonderful books! You can read them again and again without getting tires of them!
... All YA books deal with "real" problems. As a matter of fact, books about siblings, school, dating, divorce, ect. happen a lot more in life then a books about addicts, suicide, and eating disorders. Don't get me wrong, I get what you mean by "real problems", but I think it should be worded differently. \
For best Teen books about REAL problems I DEFINITELY think that "Speak" should be at the top of the list. Some books shouldn't be on the list though, even as an option, like the "Uglies" series and books like that since those are impossible to happen in the present.
DUDE, I STARTED TO READ THIRTEEN REASONS WHY AND I STARTED TO GET KINDA WEIRDED OUT, SO I STOPPED.SPEAK WAS MADE INTO A MOVIE, IT WAS PRETTY GOOD.
The perks of being a wallflower is my all time favorite book!
Great list.I either have already read them or am plaining on too.
I love Speak.
You forgot White Oleander though.
ive been wanting 2 read cut since 4th grade and im in the 7th grade. i wanna read it soo bad lolz
Ellen Hopkins books are beautifully written and are page turners.
so glad none of those twilight books are on this list. that whole twilight stuff is so overrated and its not what kids today worry about. vampires? werewolves? please give me a break

I think that I Heart You, You Haunt Meisn't really dealing with real problems,getting haunted by her dead boyfriend... not really a real life problemI don't mean to offend anyone =)
Who in their right mind voted for Percy Jackson? Great book yes, R'eal' problems NO!

Are you serious??? I didnt know it was a movie!

Because I Am Furniture & Wintergirls broke my heart i tried super duper hard not to cry but i did anyway cuz it shows u that some of the problems we complain about sometimes are practically nonexistent compared to some of the problems in most of these books....think about it but these are some good books BTW :D
In Beastly, a self-centered boy is turned into a monster by a witch. This is a real problem amoung teens today--NOT! Who are the 21 people who voted for this book? Oh, I know! 21 people who were turned into idiots by witches!
Henryetta wrote: "In Beastly, a self-centered boy is turned into a monster by a witch. This is a real problem amoung teens today--NOT! Who are the 21 people who voted for this book? Oh, I know! 21 people who were ..."your right!! :)
I don't know what people were thinking...
and gossip girl is on here why? i read the entire series and theyre all totally superficial problemslove speak, 13 reasons why & the outsiders though
Why is "Gossip Girl" on here? :P All superficial problems. Oh, and read "Freaky Green Eyes" by Joyce Carol Oates.. Its absolutely amazing.
Alice in Time is a great book about divorce bullying and mistakes.
After giving "Beastly" some thought, I do see a connection to teens today. There is so much emphsis on good looks, clothes, and popularity amoung teens. This book address that problem. The results is pure fantasy, but perhaps the emphsis on "outward appearance" was the connection that the voters saw. I was too fast to judge. By the way, "Beastly" has been made into a movie that will be released in March 2011. You can bring up the trailer on the internet.

It's on there because the Uglies series may be Scifi, but it still deals with one of the most problem among teens nowadays, the overall worry about physical appearance. This then can be related to how many teens have such horrible self-esteem which leads to big problems.

Hold Still by Nina LaCour, It's a must read.

I don't blame you, but I finished it and it was good.

thirten reasons why?? JUST finished the book and it's a really good book but it makes me really think and i luv it.
i think Gemma by Meg Tilly is a book that you should include in the list! by the way nice list ^_^
Go Ask Alice? Have you even READ that book? It is a pile of crock! There is nothing in it that is accurate or discusses real teen problems, including the fact that the entire thing is a *lie*.

Willow after and speak changed my life completely. i absolutely loved them they are now and forever my favorite books :)
thirteen reasons why made me cry uncontrollably. i would recommend it to anyone and everyone
By Time you read this i'll be dead made be sob! it ismy all time favorite book ever!!!!
My favorites are Speak, Cut, Uglies, and Specials

"Return of the Skeleton Man"? Seriously? Am I the only teenager who doesn't have problems with strange old skeleton creatures chasing me and kidnapping my parents?
Meaghan wrote: "My favorites are Speak, Cut, Uglies, and Specials"lol that is a lil odd to be on there....
LOL I love how Uglies is #12 and it's a sci-fi book. And After by Amy Efaw, cuz all teenagers throw their babies in the dumpster. . . Along with others. *slaps-forehead*
Charlotte wrote: ".... After by Amy Efaw, cuz all teenagers throw their babies in the dumpster. . . Along with others. *slaps-forehead*"I guess it depends on how you define "real"- "real" as in "extremely difficult/serious" or "real" as in "common". Efaw's book definitely falls into the former, not the latter :)

That's true. :) The sci-fi books on here are pretty funny though. Although then again, they're all dealing with personal problems within the books so I can see why. .
Speak has been made into a movie and it's rated PG-13. I read this whole book within a couple days. It was great except for the creep and the brief rape part.
