Books are a huge part of our lives in our house. Growing up, I loved to read. Going to the library was one of my favorite things. Even to this day, as an adult, I love going to the library. There’s something about being surrounded by books. When she was younger, my daughter would only check out or ask us to buy her non-fiction books because she felt that if she was going to read, she needed to be learning something. Over the course of the summer, she started branching out and has found quite a few fiction books that she really enjoys! Here are her top 10 books for tween girls!

10 Books for Tween Girls
Below are 10 books for tween girls that my 10, almost 11 year old daughter, really enjoys reading. There is definitely something for everyone! Pick up a few for Christmas and birthday gifts. I don’t know about you, but I always like to make sure I give the kids books as part of their gifts!
Roger D Willis says
I remember when my daughter was a “tweener”. Awkward age for some. I feel the book you listed, appropriately named “Awkward” would have been a good read for her. I would recommend any of these books for parents who have tweens, boys and girls!
Mandee says
Thanks for the list! I have been looking for some good ideas for my nieces for Christmas! I love giving at least one book! 🙂
Stacie @ Divine Lifestyle says
These all sound like great reads. I love to give books like this to girls that age. They need books that help them feel empowered!
Vera Sweeney says
These are great picks! I love to give books as gifts. It’s so important to keep the kids excited about reading as they get older.
Joanna @ Everyday Made Fresh says
These are great choices! My daughter is 12, and loved reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and we studied Wonder last year for one of our homeschool lessons.
Joely Smith says
Great book selections! I think keeping some books around is a great idea for those last minute gifts!
adriana says
These books all sound so good! I wish I had them when I was that age. I have to pass them on to my cousin – she has a tween daughter and I’m sure she could use these to her advantage!
Jocelyn @ Hip Mama's Place says
It’s so nice to be able to recommend books for the kids to read especially at this age. They’ll be able to appreciate stories more!
ricci says
I am a little bit reading obsessed and I have a few books to add! How about…The Princess Diaries (series), The Diary of Anne Frank, Are You There God, it’s me, Margaret, Blubber, Number the Stars, Little Women, and I could go on and on and on! LOL!
Victoria Heckstall says
Those books look so interesting and nice to read. I will definitely check this out. And share with my niece and nephew.
Melissa Dixon says
MY daughter has read a lot of these and loved them! She is more into Jodi Picaul now but she did enjoy those too!

I am looking for a book series for my 12 year old girl. She loves books for Christmas so that is what I am going to get for her this year.
Marysa says
My daughter has read all of these except for Among the Hidden and Who Was.
She is really into the Unwanteds series now. And she has read the Hunger Games Series, Maze Runner Series, and Divergent series, although some are a bit mature and needed some discussion.
Jennifer Van Huss says
My tweens (are boys) and they love reading! They have eatten through all classic novels and many of the ones above! i’ll have to keep a look out for the others!
rika says
My daughter loves to read books! These are great book choices! She owns a Magic Tree house book collection!

Thanks for the list, all of those sounds interesting. Will keep this in mind in case mommy friends of mine who have tween girls or other people who are interested.

I have a tween and a teen at home, and they are reading some of these books from your list. They are also reading some junior novels, The older one also loves reading graphic novels!
Lynndee says
We always give our son books as gifs too. He loved Diary of a Wimpy Kid and has read all the books. He also loved the Percy Jackson series. If your daughter is into that kind of books, she might want to check it out.
