The Bibliophile's Best Books of Each Genre: Young Adult

Coming towards the end of my series, we now have the list of the best young adult books. My dad guided me on my reading path when I was younger, and I look back and realise how important it is to develop a love for reading at a young age if you are to be a lifelong-reader. This list contains perennial favourites and classics, but it also contains newer books and series (such as Harry Potter) that I was too old for to enjoy as a young adult myself. The most prominent series during my childhood were the Redwall series and, an Australian favourite at the time, the Tomorrow When the War Began series. Neither of them are on this list though, as there are such great choices today. So please, enjoy...
