Book Recommendations?

So, I have an hour to get some books for free. I've got a list. Three of which I really want, the other two are replaceable. Here's what I'm looking for:

A YA fantasy about a new kid in school who's different. I don't care if s/he's a vampire, witch, alien, angel, werewolf, whatever. That's just what I'm aching for and I'm having some difficulties finding it. Which is odd consider the 'new kid' thing is a cliche.

So, what do you think? Got any ideas?

    Try the House of Night series, the whole entire school is different just the one it revolves around it very lets say special. It's a good series and a good spin on vampires with no sparkling.
