was wondering if there were any suggestions for YA books that didn't have any sex, drugs, langague? particuraly fantasy, violence isn't an issue. |

Out of those you listed, I second The Thief series and Finninkin of the Rock (Red and loved those). I'd also recommend On the Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta (there might be some language, I can't remember) The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie Crazy by Han Nolan (BS is said a few times) The Years of Secret Assignments by Jaclyn Moriarty (maybe mild language) The Book Theif by Markus Zusak (Lot's of language but still very, very good). I'm pretty sure there are more that I can come up with....

Animorphs is an excellent series. It's got a science fiction / fantasy element with down to earth characters. ^^ |

The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia C. Wrede, first one is Dealing with Dragons (also her short story collection Book of Enchantments) Anything by Gail Carson Levine Anything by Shannon Hale (like Goose Girl mentioned above, but also check out her graphic novels about Rapunzel) The Hollow Kingdom trilogy by Clare B. Dunkle The Stravaganza series by Mary Hoffman (first one is City of Masks) Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer This is more mythology than fantasy, but I also loved Inside the Walls of Troy by Clemece McLaren

Gotta double the rec for Artemis Fowl. The first three books are amazing, the later ones okay. Easily my favorite YA fantasy. |
