Good Christian Fiction book for teens?

i am thirteen and i love to read but i can not seem to find good christian books written for teens. I have read the Chronicles of Narnia. So does anyone have real good suggestion for me?Good Christian Fiction book for teens?
Have you read books by Beverly Lewis? She writes lovely books, mainly about amish communities. Try the Summerhill Secrets books, they are my favourites! The 'Elsie Dinsmore: A Life of Faith' series is really good as well, and the 'Millie Keith: A Life of Faith' I really enjoyed all of these books!
Try Screwtape Letters and Pilgrims Regress by CS Lewis too..

also the Cross and the Switchblade series that is about 50 years ago but about a guy that deals with gangs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Cross and the Switchblade is a book written in 1963 by pastor David Wilkerson with John and Elizabeth Sherrill. It tells the true story of Wilkerson's first five years in New York City, where he ministered to disillusioned youth, encouraging them to turn away from the drugs and gang violence they were involved with. The book became a best seller, with more than 15 million copies distributed in over 30 languages.



In 1970, a film adaptation was released, starring Pat Boone as David Wilkerson and Erik Estrada as Nicky Cruz, the teen gang member whose life was transformed by Wilkerson's ministry. The movie was dismissed by secular critics as uninteresting. However, it has been viewed by an estimated 50 million people in over 30 languages in 150 countries, according to World Film Crusade.



In 1972, the book was adapted into a comic book published by Fawcett Comics under their Spire Christian Comics label.



In 1968, Cruz wrote the book Run Baby Run with Jamie Buckingham, telling the story of his life including coming to New York and being in the gang, and subsequently meeting Wilkerson and thereafter becoming an Evangelical Christian.Good Christian Fiction book for teens?
This is a teen book. It thinks about morals a lot, and there is a christian character in it.



Tomorrow when war began.



It's about teens who go on a camping trip in the outback (in Australia) for a week, then to find their homes and land taken over by an enemy force when they return. Then they have to find out what happened to their parents and friends and they have to survive in a war zone.



In my opinion - its awesome. (http://books.google.com.au/books?id=h6RS鈥?/a> %26lt; preview of book



If you arnt allowed a war related book for some reason. You would probably like Twilight - and im sure 500000 people will recommended it. And it was written by a Mormon lady - so that may or may not be Christian (don't ask me, im an atheist).

Its about a girl who fancies a vampire. http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilight.h鈥?/a>

^website, as it is very popular



3 thumbs down? What did I do? Advise a interesting teen book? Plus a book written by some Christian/believer of Jesus person. Why did the person who advised gang books get no thumbs down and a thumbs up?



Anyway...

Loads of 13 year old Christian girls have read both of these books (and liked it).

Also Twilight is a Fantasy and The Tomorrow books are adventure books.
There's a great amount of books U could try, such as:



- Three and Blink by Ted Dekker

- The Treasure Box by Penelope J. Stokes

- Twilight (yeah, I know, but that's not THE OTHER Twilight) by Kristen Heitzmann

- Diary of A Teenage Girl (it's a serie by Melody Carlson, there already 4 of them!)

- True Colors series by Melody Carlson

- The O'Malley's series by Dee Henderson (if U're looking for adventure and fantasy, it's the best! I read 6 of them, waiting for the 7th)

- Ice by Shane Johnsson (it's a thriller full of suspens!)

- The Uncommon Heroes by Dee Henderson (full of fantasy too, great!)Good Christian Fiction book for teens?
