Recommend a book?

[resonant]

The kidlet is looking for books to buy a friend. What we know about the friend's reading habits: She's turning eleven, and she's all into the Twilight series.

So. Rec us meaty-yet-fifth-grade-appropriate books that are better than Twilight?

Also, Malinda Lo's Ash, which is a retelling of Cinderella, and Cindy Pon's Silver Phoenix. Both books feature female protagonists and are by women of color.
