Story ideas? what do teenagers like to read?

i want to write a book. i have a few ideas, but im not sure whether they would appeal to teenagers. anybody got any ideas? or suggestions? or tell me what things/genres you like to read?Story ideas? what do teenagers like to read?
Write what you know, like and that entertains you. Those who like it will like it and those who don't won't. Just do something, anything, except ask other people what you should write. Be creative and original.Story ideas? what do teenagers like to read?
I like read realistic fiction, mystery, fantasy, and historical fiction. I like to read about middle-schoolers, friendship troubles, dangerous quests/trips/journeys. I also like to read about girls or boys doing something different than others and about unique boys and girls - like with special powers or doing something different than other people - like a girl trying out for the football team.





Hope I helped.
it really depends on who you want to write for. i think teenage girls would be the biggest and best target audience. personally, as a girl, i absolutely love reading about romances. its the best genre. you need a strong protagonist who talks about her life and when she meets this one boy. her whole life changes.


edward and bella


romeo and juliet


jack and rose


they are the best for reaching out and stealing a teenage girls heart because they wish life could be that brilliant in reality.


i really hope that helps :)
I love to read vampire novels!


I mean the scary ones are ok but i absolutely love the typical vampire/human love story's that are set in high schools!





i must have read 4/5 vampire series!


so if your looking for what teenage girls want i would say that or something along the lines of angus thongs and perfect snogging
Something I think is very corrupt in writing is how there is never any swearing in teen books. The truth of the matter is, teenagers do swear a lot, but teenagers who read probably don't...





Focus on truthful teenage matters mixed with fantasy, i think.
i only read books if they have some romance. teens like ones where they can imagine themselves being the person like twilight is such a big success and one of the reasons is because the stephanie meyer wrote it so that the reader feels like they are bella.
im a teenager and personally i like to read romances with a twist kinda like twilight. i also love really funny books that i can relate to. i like to read long books cause otherwise by the time youve really got into it its finished.


hope this helps
Don't try to write to a specific group. Write what you like and see how it turns out. If you only write to certain people you arent writing what you love.





Answer mine please: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
well, most people like fantasy and thrillers but girls prefer romantic books and comedy- mainly twisted into one.





e.g. georgia nicolson books.





also, vampire romance has become quite popular.





books by jaqueline wilson also have some good plotlines for teens
What were your ideas? I LOVE realistic fiction. Especially stories with a mortal. Sometimes I even like a heartfelt story about leukemia or other illnesses where the people learn to love the people around them and who they truly are on the inside.
I liked Twilight, Harry Potter, Eragon etc. I think for ppl who like Twilight, it's romance, and the others, kind of adventure, fantasyish stuff.
romance,comedy,vampire stuff, something that connects to my life... hope this helps
you should have a go of a funny one
