Enthusiasm - Polly Shulman
Fans of Jane Austen's novels, Julie and Ashleigh decide to imitate their heroine and try to discover True Love in high school.
Undercover - Beth Kephart
A quiet girl writes love notes for the people in her school, but her feelings for one student may change her.
The Market - J.M. Steele
When Kate finds out that someone is rating all the girls in her class, she is determined to make sure her score rises, no matter what it takes.
Sixteen candles - Tia Williams

Shift - Jennifer Bradbury
Two friends attempt to bike cross-country until a vicious verbal conflict explodes between them. Suddenly the long-anticipated arrival in Seattle seems almost impossible to one cyclist.
Secret smile - Nicci French
Lonely Miranda Cotton never thought she would meet a handsome man at...of all places...at a skating rink where both do a lot of amiable falling down. She likes him ("His hair is glossy black like a raven's wing"), and yet when he asks for her phone number, Miranda Cotton experiences "a moment of reluctance." Readers who know their way around this author's oeuvre will experience a moment of foreshadowing and will mark Brendan Block as a black-hearted sicko. Briefly, the two become lovers, though the affair ends when Miranda comes home from work to find Brandon making free with her London flat—and, more importantly, with her very private diary. She bounces him, but Brendan, of course, doesn't take kindly to rejection and sets about implementing a pattern of vengeful behavior. In short order, he bewitches Miranda's sister, dazzles her parents, and has a devastating effect on her young brother's delicate psyche. Desperate, Miranda seeks help, but so seductively charming is Brendan that no one will believe him capable of the villainy she describes—not her family, not the lover who succeeds Brendan, not her best friend (who pays a bitter price for skepticism), and not the feckless police ("I'm not very interested in patterns," says one cloddish cop). Relentlessly, Brendan battens on Miranda's misery, piling up a pitiless string of victories in the cat-and-mouse game he refuses to end, until, at last—as you knew she must—Miranda finds the right fellow sufferer...someone just as angry as she is. Suddenly the fur really begins to fly. Excellent suspense!

The anarchists cookbook.
ANYTHING by Sarah Dessen. She is a fantastic author for teenage girls.
http://www.sarahdessen.com/
Peaches by Jodi Lynn was also a good one
Also, if you're into fantasy type books, I would strongly suggest Goose Girl by Shannon Hale.
It is a very very good book. (She has special powers so she could communicate with animals I believe)
