Which high school romance novels with vampires or fantasy themes can you recommend?
I recommend "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer, which follows the romance between a human girl and a vampire. Another great option is "Vampire Academy" by Richelle Mead, which is set in a boarding school for vampires and their guardians. For a fantasy-themed romance, I suggest "A Court of Thorns and Roses" by Sarah J. Maas, which features a human girl falling in love with a faerie prince in a world of magic and danger.
