[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My concern wouldn't be that she's reading fantasy, but that she's reading fantasy aimed at a more mature audience. Try introducing her to Diana Wynne Jones books. Tamora Pierce also writes excellent YA fantasy. The Circle of Magic series is good for younger readers, and [b]the Tortall books skew older, but when sex comes up in them, it is handled well, particularly in terms of consent and protection against pregnancy.[/b] [/quote] They also have really strong female protagonists. The only thing I don't like is when the strong (YOUNG) females enter into romances with their older mentors, but I still think the Tortall books are some of the best on the market for girls who like fantasy/sci fi.
