10 best teen books of 2010

3. "Heist Society," by Ally Carter

Author of the bestselling spy series “Gallagher Girls,” Ally Carter has another hit with “Heist Society.” Main character Katarina Bishop, like many fictional teen protagonists, is away at boarding school and trying to have a normal life. Fortunately for readers, there’s a twist: She comes from a family of professional thieves. When her father is accused of stealing five paintings, a crime he didn’t actually commit, the gutsy teen decides to embrace her past. Katarina ditches school (she was kicked out, anyway), plots an “Ocean’s Eleven”-like plan, and jets off to Europe to save her family.
