Ten of the best YA books that tackle the trials & tribulations of fame

Eric Smith is the author of The Geek’s Guide to Dating and Inked. One of ten YA reads that tackle the trials and tribulations of fame that he tagged at the B&N Teen blog:

Under the Lights, by Dahlia Adler

Oh, this book. Written by B&N Teen’s own Dahlia Adler, it’s a diverse, swoon-filled read and the companion to Behind the Scenes. In it, we meet Josh, a handsome, partygoing teen who finally lands in the spotlight he’s always wanted…only to realize it might not be what he wants after all. Meanwhile, actress Vanessa Park, a star on Daylight Falls, finds herself just as indecisive when it comes to love and friendships, especially in the case of her agent’s hot redheaded assistant, Brianna. It’s a wonderfully diverse read told in dual POV, with memorable characters and plenty of swoons.
