I think everything but the books by Stephanie Meyer should be counted as "better than Twilight". (OK, you can put the rest of the Meyer books at the bottom of the list. That includes The Host.)

Amen to that, sister!

All of the YA books should be more promoted, because Twilight, with all of it's almighty crappiness, shouldn't even have a chance to get published.
Sorry, Meyer, but if a degree from Birmingham university focused on literature didn't help you, it's not going to get any better.

I've yet to completely understand the sexual sublimation involved in neck biting, but it's in there somewhere. Probably closely akin to "being in love" with Justin Bieber. Sort of like love, but not messy (except for the blood, but not, like, you know, "nasty.")

For a true romance, with fantasy, great writing, jeopardy, check out The Ballad of Young Tam Lin. Not for the younger YA crowd, but romantic and sensual without being graphic, so fine for older YA readers. Preview on Kindle ("look inside"), or buy hardcover at https://www.createspace.com/3661637.

I just added some new books to the list for those of you that have already read the majority of the series' that are on this list. It's funny how I see the same books in just about every list so it feels good to be able to bring something completely new to the table.

The Citizens (A Jazz Nemesis Novel) by L.M. Smith

This one is good for older YA but I have to be honest and say that I suspect that the series will be going in a more adults-only direction as it progresses. Still, it's a great read - maybe just pre-screen it before handing it to your youngins.

This one is completely YA appropriate. It's a little bit violent but no more than the Twilight series and the story line is much more unique. FINALLY a book that pits vampires against something OTHER than werewolves/lycans. Yep, a brand new creature is in this book that I've never seen before anywhere else and they're pretty badass.
