What are some really good non-fiction books for teenage girls, around 14, would like to read?
March 62010
My teacher is making us do a weekly reading log where we have to read an hour a week and do a one-sentence summery on the book. But the thing is, it has to be NON-fiction. And know no books that meet my interest in non-fiction. Some things I like are Harry Potter, The Clique series, and the Twilight books. Anything similar?
Okay, this book is nothing like the ones you suggested, but I like the books you like, so maybe you’ll like this as much as I. It’s called Running With Scissors, by Augusten Burroughs, and it’s a memoir or autobiography, therefore non-fiction, and it’s absolutely hilarious. If you give it a shot, you’d probably enjoy it, I read it when I was your age. Also, there are plenty of books on vampires that are non-fiction, or you could even read a "guide" to Twilight or Harry Potter, those are also non-fiction, for example.

Hope that helps.

The action moves from Panama, to Boston, to Tasmania, and finally to an exotic uncharted island of the South Pacific. Set in modern times, four seemingly ordinary people join together in a danger-filled quest across the Pacific to an uncharted island paradise, to solve the mystery and defeat an ancient curse.
