This girl I like asked me to recommend her some books. I don't think she will like my tastes, since I really like war memoirs and stuff like that. She's a typical sad girlz teen who wears flowery shit. Give me some good angsty or coming-of-age books or whatever a teenager will like.
no Catcher in the Rye pls
Hamlet

Oh, and À la Recherche du Temps Perdu.
Demian
Make her start with the Danaans.
Candide
>>7790463
Some Jean Genet, or a not too edgy Sade book. You could also go with a big, troubled and deep book like Les Origines de la France contemporaine by the infamous Hyppolite Taine
The Wasp Factory. It's perfect for an adolescent girl like that.

Make her read Flannery O'Connor. If she likes her stuff you can both get married, move into the countryside and never leave again.
