Any suggestions?What are some good teen romance novels for boys?
I've always had a problem with teen fiction as a concept. I accept that certain stories are aimed at the very young (and that certain stuff needs to be kept from them until they're ready for it); but once you hit your teenage years, surely everything should be open to you? If, for example, you're fifteen, you're neither too old for Harry Potter nor too young for Herman Melville. Or am I missing something?
In any case - try the His Dark Materials trilogy.
Have you tried any of the "classics"? A book I found very interesting as a teen was "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens. Sometimes the language is a bit of a trial, but the romance is there in it's own wierd way.
On occasion, I still re-read the book, even though I know the ending because I can find something in the story each time.
Basic story: a poor boy, befriended by a bitter old woman, with a young girl apprentice, trying to teach the young girl the evils of young boys, the trials of both of the youngsters and the heartbreak that can be brought on by betrayal.What are some good teen romance novels for boys?
Wow. You're going to get a lot of Twilight answers on here--they're good and all (not OMGTHEBESTBOOKEVEREDWARDISSOOHOT! though) I do know a couple of guys who've read it and like it alot--but it is overly mushy if you ask me.
Scott Westerfeld is pretty good. Anything by him will have some romance in it even if it's subtle.
What My Girlfriend Doesn't Know
Marianne Curley's The Gaurdians of Time trilogy has some subtle romance and it's from two different people's perspective in every book so you get the guy side and the girl side--
An Abundance of Katherines
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
Beastly by Alex Flinn
Stargirl
24 Girls in 7 Days
These are mainly ones from a guys perspective---if that doesn't really bother you then try absolutely anything by Deb Caletti (Nature of Jade is my favorite) and Sarah Dessen (The Truth About Forever's the best!!). And How I Live Now. It's brilliant.
Also, go to whatshouldireadnext.com. It'll generate a list of books you might like based off of one you do like! It's pretty rad. I use is ALL the time.
And who cares what the guys think!!! Most girls will like it that you are confident in your sensitive side :) I think its hot. :) :)
try Generation Dead, im reading it at the moment and its not all puppy dogs and kittens, its seriously scary and im a girl but it did freak me out a bit! Its where all over the country teenagers who die are not staying dead, they come back as the "living impaired" and they try to carry on there lives as zombies but not everyone is happy about it, they want them gone. A Girl falls for one of them - i would definitely recommend it, its quite a new book and the front cover is awesome :P hope i helped! If you dont like twilight (which is good) im sure youll like this! :PWhat are some good teen romance novels for boys?

my guy friend really loves the twilight books. i wouldn't know though. i have not read them. and he is gay of course, but nevertheless still a guy.
Try the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer, my son just finished the last book and he loved them all.
