What genres does she like?
Colleen Hoover is super popular with that age group. |

That’s the perfect age for “The Secret History.”
(Unless she’s read it already; it’s become quite popular again with teenagers!) |

She likes “smart romance.” |

Oh I like this idea since I discovered it at her age. I dont know Coleen Verity but will check out her books. Keep the good recs coming! |

I'd take the "teen" out of it and buy her regular adult books.

I have such a soft sport for Red, White, & Royal Blue. Loved it. Good movie, too. |

Totally agree with Taylor Jenkins Reid!
Colleen Hoover is horrible. |

Thank you from the OP! I am going with The Secret History and the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo (I’ve read both and liked a lit - I loved The Secret History when I was her age) and a gift card to Amazon with a list of the other suggestions  I think she will really enjoy.
