Have her talk to the school or local library about forming a tween book club. There may be some online, but that would be more monitoring than I'd want to do.

You could also do a kid's version of one of the reading challenges, where you choose a book to fit various categories. This might help you help her find new subjects and genres of interest. Here an example from Popsugar, though it has some adult categories you might want to adapt: https://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/Reading-Challenge-2018-44138581

Something weird is that I keep a journal of all the books that I read. I really enjoy putting another book on the list and have been doing this since I was 8. I still average 60+ books a year.

NP here. My 8 yo recently stated keeping track of all the books he reads in a reading journal.

Let her review books on amazon. It's fun to get other's feedback on your reviews or to see how others have reviewed the same book. Would be kind of cool to maybe someday spin it into a college admissions thing -- she could say that she was reviewed over 1000 books on Amazon or something. They rank people by how many reviews they have written and how helpful they were. She could be the pre-teen harriet Klausner.

NP - I am interested in this as an adult myself, thanks!

Op: thank you. Wonderful link!

Have her do ACT and SAT practice tests for reading, English and science.

I thought the same.

Just keep taking her to the library, buying books, and encouraging her passion. There are monthly book subscriptions, but I'm not sure about online book clubs. Sometimes small, independent book stores (if you can find one) will have teen or kids' book clubs. She could also always start her own if she wants to be able to discuss books with more of her peers. For my oldest DS, who has always been an avid reader, I read a lot of the books he loved so he would have someone with whom to discuss them. That was especially helpful when he was younger and reading far above grade level because none of his peers were reading the same books.

Damn. I loved reading because it wasn't competitive. The best thing my parents did was to let me read any book I wanted without limits.

When I was in elementary school my public library (on Long Island) had book clubs for kids. I can still remember the dot stickers I got for each book I read and presented.

See if the library has one or can suggest one.

Why does her love of reading need to be competitive?

The library. No need for competitions or tests. Join a book club somewhere if she enjoys discussing the books she reads. Don't kill the love. Just let her read.

DD is 9yo in 4th grade and has always been an advanced reader. We are realizing that reading is her passion. Are there such things as online book clubs for advanced readers who love nothing more than to read? Competitions? Tests? Is there something like bookreads for kids? What opportunities are there for kids who have a passion and gift for reading? She has a real gift.
