help me with some books for teenage reading

My 13 year old nephew doesn't like to read books. Can you suggest me some books that will get him in the habit of reading.
I got him HP book but since he has watched the movies he was not much interested in reading through them more so  because of their huge size.
Sometime he picks a book that I am reading but most often won't finish them.
Is it the same with all boys since very rare I found them talking about books and all whereas my niece is always glued to one book or other.

ok books for boys i kind of typical to suggest i mean i never got an idea what will they luv to read might be some erotica but he is a kid so dont thnk abt tht then mm i think u shd give him some comics to go for or u can suggest him who moved my cheese its a good humourous read with characters but a philosophy hidden there
i really dont know what to sugest for 13 yr old boy well u cn give him some slight romance like love story of erich saegal but yeah boys arnt sophisticated

well give him a translated version of the three musketeers i hope he will enjoy tht but a translated short version okkk

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm mayb meg cabot books mayb

Get him Hardy Boys or something. Adventurous ones, boys are usually less mature than girls at 13, am 14 and I totally know that. So maybe, beginning with adventure and all of the thrilling issues would be a nice idea.

Aflred Hitchcock , Hardy Boys, umm u can give him comic books too like Archies, and Asterix, Tintin ......he might also like classic books like Tom Sawyer, Moby Dick, Charles Dickens.

Thanks for your help
Will try with some Hardy Boys books.

Thats right you should definitely try Hardy Boy for him....my brother is also 13 and loves them

Why dont you try Horrible Science/Horrible History series. Edited by whatsername - 13 years ago

Yes my brother isnt into reading much. But he loves Horrid Henry ...i know its a bit childish and diary of a wimpy kid.

Diary Of a Wimpy Kid..!!
