Especially if they are a Harry Potter fan! DD has just finished and she can't find anything to 'get stuck into' the way she did HP.

Any recommendations?

TIA

I ended up ordering this and she's loving it so far!

Lots of other ideas too, thanks for all the suggestions.

There were some Witch School books that naughtier enjoyed after Harry Potter. Also How to Train Your Dragon... hmmm, I will have to inspect her bookcase as they're all still there

My 10 year old Harry Potter living DS also enjoyed the Nevermore and the Chrestomanci series.

I’ve just read Tom’s midnight Garden to my DD (9) She loved it and other DD(12) dropped by to listen as she loved it when I read it to her. I love it too.
