1. Anything by John Green, although Abundance of Katherines and Will Grayson, Will Grayson are my favorites.
2. The Blue Castle by LM Montgomery (does this count as a classic? Not sure)
3. One for the Money by Janet Evanovich (this series is laugh out loud funny - although a bit mature - and this is the first book)
4. Bitten by Kelley Armstrong (More grown up fantasy novels, for those with a taste for the vampires and werewolves but no patience for sparkles)
5. The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare

So there... I tried to include a couple different genres in there. My disclaimer is that 3 and 4 are definitely mature and I'm not recommending them to readers who can't see PG-13 movies.
