My daughter is an avid reader, and I'm looking for some recommendations for her. I'm hoping y'all can help!

Books she's read and liked:

  • Hunger Games (loved it)

  • Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

  • Shadow and Bone

  • Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

  • Harry Potter (loved of course)

  • Warriors

  • Ender's Game

  • Rangers Apprentice

Hopefully that's an idea of what she's into. Ideas, please?

The Cytoverse series by Brandon Sanderson, starting with Skyward. Age appropriate, female protagonist, sci-fi.

Also, I see someone else in this thread recommended Blood Meridian, and I feel like I should say that's not a good recommendation for that age group. It's a good book, and Cormac McCarthy is a great writer, don't get me wrong, but it is also bleak, super violent, and dense.
