Unfortunatly i can't assist. My teenage reading years were 30 years ago...I've never read Harry Potter or the Lord of the Rings stuff, although I did see & enjoy one of the HP films. I could only suggest starting on the Modern Classics...possibly Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451"....I could'nt possibly give the plot away, but needless to say it does involve a teenage girl exposing the fireman hero to free thought and speech in a society otherwise engaged in constant drivel.

Possibly some Orwell as well.......and possibly William Golding?
