for those who love to read Young Adult books. I hope this is useful to you as one more resource for finding the right book for a young adult in your life. Note: YA tends to refer to ages 13 up, but there is a lot of range in how mature the books are in the issues and situations they deal with. If you have specific questions about content, feel free to ask me. If you don't want to ask in the comments, you can always email me. (See the contact information tab for my email address.) Links are to my reviews. For Those Looking for Fun and Romantic (with excellent banter): From Twinkle, with Love  and   There's Something about Sweetie  by Sandhya Menon Speak Easy Speak Love by McKelle George Pride  by Ibi Zoboi Don't Date Rosa Santos  by Nna Moreno Things I Should Have Known  by Claire LaZebnik For Those Who Enjoy Realistic Tales of Family and Friendship (both easy and hard)... </div> <a
