Question: What are some good books for a 7th grader!?

my little sis wants to know what same good books for her age group might be!. She has already read the twilight series and the clique series!. thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

In the fiction category I would recommend the following:
“The uglies” (series)
“Maximum ride” (series)
“A great and terrible beauty” (the first book of a series)
I would also recommend “The host” by the same authoress as Twilight!.

As for books like the clique I would recommend:
“The wish” a teenage fiction, but less complex as the fiction books I listed above!.
“Gossip girl” which I, personally didn’t enjoy, but I think that she might like it!.
“The secret language of girls” is a pretty successful book, but a little sad!.
My friend also tells me that “The wedding planner’s daughter” is a good book!.
“Up a road slowly” I think is a very inspiring book, I loved it!.

I can’t help you much in the category of books like “the clique” because I normally do not read them, but I hope it helped!.

I know you didn’t ask it, but if she were interested in romance books, I would recommend the following:

“Suzanne’s diary for Nicholas”
“Sam’s letters to Jennifer”

I would even recommend “Peony in love”, but that depends on her age!. I hope that helped!.

In response to Lauren R, I think that those books might be a little difficult!. But if she does get into the classics, "Wemon in love," is a real sweet book =)

In responce to tawn ?, I think that, sadly, in 7th grade children know about things like that already!. And although some people might think that books about drugs ect!. are inapropriate for middle-scholars, I think the book might teach them to STAY AWAY from those things, rather than be tempted to mimic them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you like the twilight series then I might suggest fantasy styled books like Eragon, and such!. if you like that type of stuff I can also suggest any type of Shoji (girls mainly) manga (japanese comic)!. They are getting a big hit these days!. you can find your local manga section at any barnes N Nobles or any other book store!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It kind of depends on her interests but I know when I was 7th grade (which was a while back I admit) I really got into Bruce Coville's books!. The My Teacher is an Alien series is really good and funny too!. He's a got several others if you want more info check out his website: http://www!.brucecoville!.com/

Another series she might enjoy is the Shadow Children Series by Margaret Peterson Haddix, or any of her other books actually!.

Harry Potter is really good too if she hasn't read it yet!.

The Penedragon series by D!.J!. MacHale is really good too and so is the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix!.

Hope that helps, I pretty much only read ya fiction but it's been about while since I was in seventh grade ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com

some books i really enjoyed were
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare
A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray
Rebel Angels by Libba Bray
The Sweet Far Thing by Libba Bray!.

I think if she like the twilight series and the clique series she will like theseWww@QuestionHome@Com

confessions of an it girl, and the libba bray series are awesome books!. also, the book East (sry, cant recall the author) Oh, and the Author CORNELIA FUNKE! she is amazing, like inkheart, inkspell, dragon rider, etc!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

agree with all of the above, but if you have ever seen gossip girl, it is CLEARLY un-appropriate for a grade 7, i would never subject my sister to the drugs sex & partying that is projected through this show & the books!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

If she likes The Clique, and Twilight that probably means she likes series books!. Have her try Gossip Girl, The Luxe, and The It Girl!. I personally believe they are all great books!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and breaking dawn!.
