Popular books for teens

Reading is an extraordinarily fascinating and important activity for children of any age. Although most teens do not get to read a book, in fact, it is enough to choose the right literary work so that your offspring could not tear himself away from it.

Unfortunately, classical literature is usually not popular with teenage boys. Boys and girls do their best to avoid those books that they are recommended to read in class, preferring to spend time on the Internet, in front of a television set or on the street.

Meanwhile, there are popular books that are popular among teens. Of course, they do not always meet the requirements of the school curriculum, but they are interesting for children, and this is also an important factor. In this article, we will list the most popular books for teenagers, which every young girl and young man must certainly familiarize with.

Top 5 popular books for teenagers

The list of the most popular teenage books is as follows:

1. "Kill a mockingbird," Harper Lee. Despite the fact that this novel was written back in 1960, it is still extremely popular among adults and teenagers. Narrative in this book is on behalf of the girl Louise, so it traces children's maximalism, humor and warmth, and at the same time, the theme of xenophobia, violence and interracial conflicts.
2. "The stars are to blame," John Greene. An incredibly romantic, sad and sentimental story about the life and love of two teenage boys fighting cancer.
3. A series of books about Harry Potter, author - Joan Rowling. Almost all teenagers in one breath read all these works and several times review their screen versions.
4. "Hunger Games," Susan Collins. In this story, modern America is transformed into a totalitarian state of Panem, divided into 12 districts. Annually "hunger games" are held in the territory of this country, for participation in which a girl and a teenage boy are chosen from each district. As a result of this cruel fun, only 1 out of 24 people should remain alive.
5. "The Catcher in the Rye," Jerome Sellinger. The protagonist of this book, a rather stupid teenager, was expelled from school for underachieving. Meanwhile, although he does not possess a high level of intelligence, his views and thoughts deserve attention.

Every teenager must at least begin to read these works, and he, no doubt, will not be able to tear himself away from them. However, there are other books that may interest children at this age, for example:
