Wendy Mass is a great writer, too. She writes more realistic fiction books, I think.
Check these out:

A Mango-Shaped Space
Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life
Heaven looks a lot like the mall

What are they about?

Subject: Re: Wendy Mass Thu Dec 04, 2008 5:18 pm

Mango- a girl with an enhanced ability to see colors when she hears sounds. it's cool because it is a real thing called synesthesia- she struggles to live a normal life and nobody believes her about the colors

Jeremy- jeremy turns 13 soon, but he gets a package in the mail that has a box adressed to him "For jeremy fink to open on his 13th bday" except there are four keys, and he has no idea where they are. him and his best friend lizzy go searching for them- this book is hilarious and realistic, like you know the characters yourself

heaven/mall-a teenage girl is in the hospital she thinks she is dead- her life flashes in front of her- and she learns from it

Subject: Re: Wendy Mass Mon Dec 15, 2008 7:48 pm

See, last year I told my parents NOT to get me one because I thought it was stupid and I didn't need one, now I NEED one.

Subject: Re: Wendy Mass Tue Dec 16, 2008 12:59 pm

why'd you think it was stupid? i think it's better than cds and radio- combined Smile

Subject: Re: Wendy Mass Tue Dec 16, 2008 7:39 pm

because everyone had them and I thought it would be something that would be opsileet after another year.

Subject: Re: Wendy Mass Wed Dec 17, 2008 1:02 pm
