Since I have the time to read short books, I am raiding my local library for all the young adult novels I missed or which have been written since I was a kid. Any suggestions? I prefer fantasy, but will make exceptions for quirky fiction, spy novels, adventure etc. Chances are high I haven't read anything recent.
Just finished reading Fushigi Yugi Genbu Kaiden 4, Eureka Seven 1 & 2 and American Born Chinese. American Born Chinese I really enjoyed. I liked the combining of the story with Monkey and the art was very smooth. Eureka Seven was a bit confusing in terms of plot development, as many manga are. Not sure if I will continue it. And Genbu Kaiden was great except I've forgotten everyone's names and since everyone has at least two names in that story, I spent a lot of time flipping back to the character profiles at the beginning of the book.
