You know elementary schoolers have chapter books and tweens have middle grade books for every subject? Older teens (ages 16+) have young adult books, but what happens to the in-between teens? Those who may be too young for the grittier topics, occasional sexual content, drinking scenes, and often strong language used frequently in young adult books.

Younger teens often feel a bit lost looking for the right kinds of books for them. While many enjoy upper middle grade books, these stories might be a bit too young for the average 15-year-old. If you're looking for good books for 14-16-year-olds, this list is your best bet! I've included the sweetest YA books, several of which have no romance arc, only a few instances of strong language, and a couple of kissing scenes at best!
