my guess is that seeing as it's a tuesday, and school is in session, it's going to be hard to find the 12-13 year old girls who post here on right now. they are like, uh, in school, and stuff.
no worries though, Glice should be back soon. |

This request isn't for any specific age group to respond. I'm just looking to give my sister a book and was curious what if any books people read when they were that age that they look back on as being a good read. |

I'm not a woman...but...when I was 13-14 I read a lot of sci-fi/poli sci type books.
1984, Farenheit 451 (the fact that both of these stories are LOVE stories escape many), Brave New World, A Clockwork Orange, The Andromeda Strain, Jurrassic Park, etc, were all great reads when I was that age. As far as gender specifics are concerned? Eh. Blah. Genderism is so 30 years ago. |

Maybe Mother Night by K.Vonnegut
I didn't start reading in a rabid fashion until I was 14 and I somehow feel that those books would be too much of a mind spasm for someone I feel is very young. I mean yeah... it's not like I'm passing off the Anarchists Cookbook....ok thanks SYGossip |

Bloody hell. Here's some decent choices
The Colour Purple and Oranges aren't the only fruit Both decent novels and don't patronise the reader.

Roald Dahl- Boy
I know it is an autobiography about Roald Dahl's being a young boy, but for males and females at age 13 it is a very good read. |

jeezus, with this thread
get her some basic poetry, nothing about fucking-- khalil gibran or something. as for novels-- im not well-versed in girly literature, i dont know-- don't people read "little women" anymore? i always liked the tomboy one, i forget her name-- jo? yeah. when i was 12 i used to read a lot of adventure novels-- verne, salgari, all that shit. girls are supposedly more into social life & relationships, or so the zoologists say. |
