Calling all voracious readers!

So, you've got a 12-year-old girl you're trying to talk out of reading Twilight, with its sketchy gender politics and iffy writing.

What do you recommend, oh Friends List?

Just about anything by Tamora Pierce is first to mind, probably because I just saw her this weekend at Darkover. I'm sure there is plenty more.

EDIT: Subject to preview by adult types... some may object to the sexual elements, and there is some scary (perhaps squicky) stuff.

I LOVE Tamora Pierce! I can't wait for Bloodhound (and am so disappointed in the delays! I need that book!)
