It's sort of fantasy but a book she should read if she hasn't already: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
Oh yes. I would be ok with this because it's not swords & sorcery fantasy.
Also:
Ann of Green Gables
Ah! Good point. Not sure if she has read them. I will get her the first!
Little Women
I've got that for her too. She's read it, but it would be nice for her to have her own copy.

Was that by readers of that particular genre, or more by "serious" critics?

I need book recommendations for a 12-year-old girl. Not fantasy. At all.
