I've always been a bookworm, and I've recently fallen in love with the young adult genre. The books are almost always entertaining and easy reads I find difficult to put down. However, finding the right one can take time; bookstores and libraries have such a wide selection that it's hard to know where to start. If you've run into the same problem, we have a suggestion: pick a YA novel based on your zodiac sign!

The following books span a variety of genres and character types, but they're all fall under the YA umbrella — some are even included in Reese Witherspoon's Book Club! Take a look to locate you next favorite book.
