I’d say depends on what interests you.
When it comes to Catholicism it’s like opening a treasure box.
some good books that I like are
“How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization” by historian Dr. Thomas E. Woods
“Orthodoxy” by G.K. Chesterton
“The Jesuit Guide to Almost Everything” by Fr. James Martin,SJ

Lives of the Popes. Richard P. McBrien
Compassion: A Reflection on the Christian Life by Henri Nouwen, Donald P. Mcneill and Douglas A. Morrison (Dec 13, 2005)
I love this second book, it is SO Pope Francis!

It may not be a “Catholic book” in the sense of being a dissertation on Catholic principles,
but if you’re looking for a book that most kids will read gladly,
and gives a great Catholic example of a Catholic teenaged girl in present day America,
( how many books are like that?
)
