DD2 is very nearly 10. She likes books about fairies, unicorns, happy little elves etc.
Her teachers have always said she has an reading level way above her age group, her comprehension is excellent, BUT she's just not interested in any other books.
She'll occasionally dip into a Jacqueline Wilson, but that's about as far as it goes.
She's tried Harry Potter, and Joseph Delaney books and doesn't like them, and hates twilight with a passion.
DD1 is 11 and has suggested all sorts of (appropriately aged) fantasy novels to her but no, she can't get into them.
Anyone got any ideas of something a little more age appropriate? Most of the stuff she likes is aimed at 5 year olds.
