Book recommendations for 12 yo

[tonic_water]

My 12yo daughter still likes reading books with me at bedtime. I'm sure it won't last much longer, but...

 

I'm looking for recommendations as to what we can read next as we're coming to the end of our current series.

 

We're currently reading the Charmed Life series by Dianne Wynn Jones which we are enjoying greatly. And over the last year or so we've read and enjoyed:

- The Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula Le Guin

- Barimaeus and Lockwood series by Jonathan Stroud (both immeasurably superior to Harry Potter)

- The five books that make up The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper.

 

Any ideas or inspiration for what might be next?

I’d say you couldn’t go wrong with Phillip Pullmans northern lights (Original) trilogy.  Also the mortal engines books are wonderful.

Derek Landy's Skullduggery Pleasant series are fantastic.

Terry Pratchett's Tiffany Aching books. And any of his stuff, really.

A second vote for the Mortal Engines series, as well as one for Patrick Ness's Chaos Walking trilogy.
