My 12 year old daughter wants to read the book. Is it suitable for someone in the 7th grade? Or, are there sections too mature for a young girl? Thanks in advance for what you can share.

The things that happened in this novel happened to children 12 and younger. Read it with her; help her understand the motivations of the people involved. And, as a 12-year-old, she is old enough to know about sex, and the motivations of the characters. If she doesn't, it's time to teach her.(less)
