Favorite YA novel?

Uh... You've kinda put me on the spot here...

Does His Dark Materials count?

If not, I have to go with Harry Potter for no other reason than I think that Snape is right up there in the echelons of truly great characters. I read the rest with an undercurrent of annoyance though.

Something by Kurt Vonnegut. Can't be fucked picking one, they're all the same.

This awesome sci fi book that musn't have been popular because I can't fucking find it anymore. It was about a double agent who was tasked with infiltrating a certain sector of an alien race, he was half whatever-they-were so he could withstand their bright lights, but he has to get surgery to make him look exactly like one of them. They can't see colour and he almost fucks himself over by saying something looks green or something like that. The novel was called The Color of Space or something. Really want dat book.
