Also Bram Stoker's Dracula and anything by Anthony Horowitz or Darren Shan ....and I believe there is a seven book series about a boy wizzard that have proved quite popular - except you say you dont like magic!
The usual suspects Bronte(s)/Austen/Dickens/Conan Doyle/Poe
Wilde's Dorian Gray, and for fun ... Douglas Adams Hitchhiiker series, Spike Milligan's Puckoon (maybe dated now) and Joseph Heller's Catch 22 .... Happy Reading

Posted this on another thread then came across yours! They both meet your criteria though Sarny is a bit more adult than Nightjohnblue_diamond21 wrote:I personally love the books Nightjohn and Sarny by Gary Paulsen. I read them when I was about 12/13 and still love them. They are both about a slave girl called Sarny with the first following her lifer on a viscious cotton plantation as a child and the second following her search for her family after the plantation is destroyed during a battle between the north and south. They were my first attempt at reading more 'grown up' literature and they are great

I'm into the murder mystery/horror ones.
If you're not afraid of some gore and sort of morbid descriptions, try some books by Thomas Harris- The Silence of the Lambs, is my favorite. Also try Black Sunday, Hannibal, Hannibal Rising, and Red Dragon.
Also try The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. The movie was good, but the book is 100x better!

I agree here, that Marsden's series would be appreciated by you. He also has written a follow on series called the Ellie series. The Ellie series is the story of rebuilding life after their war. 10 books all up should keep you occupied for a little whilesleepydumpling wrote:Start with Tomorrow, When the War Began by John Marsden. I first read that one (and then the rest of the series) when I was in my teens and I swear, I was hyperventilating they were so exciting. I have read them several times since.
