Denise Saxon asked this question about Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1):
I have an 9 year old who really wants to read this book (she is reading at least 7th grade level). Is the theme too advanced? I'd love your opinion on any advanced/troubling things in the book so I could evaluate whether she could handle it. Thank you!

This may seem like a bad thing, but when you as a parent, limit your child to certain types of books, it just makes the child want to read them more. It encourages children to read more.
Mid last year, I started to read the twilight series, this may seem bad, but I got addicted, and I couldn't put it down. After that I found FanFiction.Net, and read more than 500 alternate universes in twilight. I wansn't a very big fan of the original twilight, but I was more a fan of the FanFiction.Net twilight, that fans created.
I also started to read Harry Potter fanfiction as well. I then continued to read around 600 stories.
And then I read crossovers of Harry Potter and twilight. I read one story consisting of 90 chapters, and around 360,000 words long.
As you can see, I have become accustomed to reading about 5 fanfiction stories a day, and when my MAum limits me to books, I rea them any way.(less)
