[quote=Anonymous]Modesitt.  Recluce series is pretty good.  There are several in the series focused on women characters.  No explicit sex.  No gross violence.  Women run the major kingdom in the books.

Unfortunately the first book in the series features a male character though there are strong women characters too.  The books are not in particular order and characters often relate between books.  Same author has a series called Spellsong where most of the main characters are women.

I would have no issues having a 12 year old dig into that author.

Also, God forbid, Wheel of Time is out there.  A long series - so long the author died and Sanderson was brought into finish up.  But, the first book is really pretty good with important women characters.  No explicit sex or violence really.  And, the series is coming out in a couple of months on Prime I think (very big budget) so she would be up on the important characters.

Outlander is also good but a fair amount of sex. I would not recommend for 12.  You will hear a bit about it because a new book is coming out after several years.

Obvious one - Harry Potter.  Good reads even if she has seen the movies.
