Which YA CONTEMPORARY books do you love and WHY?

There are quite a few. I love just about anything John Green. Anna and the French Kiss was really good. Sarah Dessen is really good, though her books can get a little repetitive. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith is really good and I just finished Openly Straight by Bill Konigsberg. Both are awesome reads!

I also like The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith because it's so fluffy. And I absolutely adore The DUFF: Designated Ugly Fat Friend by Kody Keplinger (The male MC is super-swoonworthy). But my favourite all-time YA contemporary books would have to be Bully by Penelope Douglas and The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay. Simply for the fact that they blew my mind away with their awesomeness.

Thanks, ladies! And if anyone wants to add what they liked - i.e. plot, voice, what specifically turned them on about the book, what kept them reading...that would be awesome.
