Please forgive me if my previous message DID get through, but I think it did not and I want to be sure to list my top two favorite YA books and their authors.
I know people don't automatically think of Brock Cole as hilarious, but CELINE was, I thought, wonderfully funny and poignant too.
And someone already mentioned M.E. Kerr, all of whose books I love, but particularly DINKY HOCKER SHOOTS SMACK! which is hysterical, but also packs a big emotional punch.
