books in English for home reading
Hello! I want to ask you about what books written in English/English language books you suggest I can should choose for home reading at home (why particularly at home, read anywhere!). In ordinary life (do you also have a separate extraordinary life?), I read a lot of Jack London, Conan Doyle, the Harry Potter series and so on (in translation, in parallel, or in English?). I like good books for teens/young adults. My English is not very good so nothing too demanding please!

books in English for home reading
Hello! I want to ask you about what books in English I can choose for home reading? (That question isn't wrong, it's just a little bit awkward. A more natural way to phrase it would be "I would like to ask you about what English books should I pick out for home reading?") In ordinary life Ordinarily, I tend to read a lot of Jack London, Conan Doyle, the Harry Potter series and so on. I like good books for teens. My English is not very good.

You should look for books in the "Young Adult" category.
Some of my favorites when I was a teen:
"Ella Enchanted" by Gail Carson Levine. A Cinderella story.
"Walk Two Moons" by Sharon Creech. The story of a Native American teen dealing with the loss of her mother.
"The Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger. The story of a boy who is expelled from an expensive prep school. This book is required reading in most American schools.
"The Princess Diaries" series by Meg Cabot. The story of an American teen girl who learns she is the princess of a European country.
"Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging." A British comedy series by Louise Rennison. Still one of my favorites.
"Holes" by Louis Sachar. The story of a teen boy sent to a camp for juvenile offenders (prisoners.)

I think you could start rereading books of Rowling) It could be a bit easier because you know the story. :)
But if we were talking about other books... Did you read Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones for example?

I forgot to add that a good place to search for books is www.goodreads.com
They have a very extensive library that also includes information on authors, reviews posted by different people and a forum too^^
Personally, I would also recommend authors like Sarah Dessen, Jodi Picoult and Neil Gaiman is pretty fun^__^
