So after buying and reading everything by Lisa Schroeder and Sonya Sones, I am now working my way through Ellen Hopkin's novels. If Crank is anything to go by I know I am in for some great reading! In addition to those three authors I also did my usual thing and looked for as many books in verse as possible Unfortunately, much to my disappointment, my current bank balance is preventing me from buying them all, but here are all the ones I've found. I think they all sound amazing! I've also included a link to a preview if I've found one:)
Shark Girl by Kelly Bingham (Amazon Browse Inside Preview)
Heaven Looks a Lot Like the Mall by Wendy Mass
Pieces of Georgia by Jen Bryant (Amazon Browse Inside Preview)
Make Lemonade by Virginia Euwer Wolff (Amazon Browse Inside Preview)
A Bad Boy Can Be Good For a Girl by Tanya Lee Stone (Amazon Browse Inside Preview)
Jinx by Margaret Wild (Amazon Browse Inside Preview)

I don't have any to add (although I *think* David Levithan has written a few verse novels) -- I just wanted to say thanks for the list, because I've been looking to get into verse novels, lately. This is really handy :)
What a great list :)
Wonderful list - I am adding to my wishlist! Thank you!
Wow, so many verse novels. For sure going to check some out! :)
