I can't keep up with her, she can almost get through a book a day & I'm rapidly running out of ideas. I'm also finding its getting more awkward as her tastes & ability seem to be more teenage than 10, so as shes still quite young, I obviously need to take care with content too, hence why I'm asking for any recommendations here:) - I don't mind horror etc, she understands it as make believe & is very sensible & not easily spooked, but nothing sexually explicit, or too much about drugs etc, odd swearing okay, as again she's sensible & probably hears worse in the street.
She's just finished Shift (Em Bailey) which she really loved, said its the best book she's read yet, so anything of that ilk would be great - I can't find any other Em Bailey books - are there more ?
She's now reading, but almost finished Eve & Adam ( Michael Grant/Katherine Applegate) again really enjoyed that & prior to these devoured the whole Karen Mc Combie, Alison world & others, enjoyed, but got a bit bored so wanted more challenging.
She's desperate to get her hands on mŷ old James Herbert books, I'm tempted as some I think she would love, but I just wish I could remember which if any don't have sex scenes - anyone ?
Or any other recommendations at all, she seems keen on anything with a bit of a twist, horror, thrillers & was reading a lot of teen school drama type stuff, but I think she'd want that to be a bit more of a twist to it now, if that makes sense
Any advice gratefully received
TIA :)
