Unwind

Unwind by Neal Shusterman

In a future world where those between the ages of thirteen and eighteen can have their lives "unwound" and their body parts harvested for use by others, three teens go to extreme lengths to uphold their beliefs--and, perhaps, save their own lives.

Guerilla Art Kit

Guerilla Art Kit by Keri Smith

Artist? Activist? This is for you.

One Hundred Young Americans

One Hundred Young Americans by Michael Franzini

More than two hundred stunning images show every kind of teenager from every part of our nation, mirroring census data for gender, race, religion and sexual orientation and to strike a balance between urban, rural, suburban and small-town locations.

The Luxe

The Luxe series by Anna Godbersen

Ok, is anyone else as crazy about these books as I am? It's like Gossip Girl with corsets. For those of you who haven't yet caught the bug, here's what you need to know: it's 1899 and the world is obsessed not with actors and singers but with the society girls of New York. There's Elizabeth Holland, who is the model of propriety and sure to marry well. There's her younger sister, Diana, who cares more about adventure then appearances. There's Penelope, always looking for a way to replace Elizabeth as Manhattan's shining star. Finally there's Lina, the Hollands' maid, who'd do anything to change her lot in life. Then there are the boys in their lives. And of course, the secrets. Secrets so juicy they'd make the front page of all the papers, and so damaging they could flip this little world upside down. And, you know how secrets are...they have a way of coming out.

Catch this series from the beginning:
