YA Books I'm Excited to Read!

I know I haven't done my Book of the Week in a while, but I'm really into adult books right now. I'll return to YA books soon, though, starting with manga. I'm starting a manga club Monday, June 22 at 2 and I want to be somewhat familiar with it, so I'll start with Naruto and Fruits Basket, the most popular ones at the library. If there are any good manga you can suggest a newbie like me should read, let me know!
