Thanks for the question, Arabella! Here's a small list of books that I have enjoyed that I think is a great read for 13 yr old readers, many of them are Christian fiction but the ones that aren't, are still good, clean reads.
~The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis (I haven't read the entire series yet, but the ones I've had, I've loved)
~The Kingdom Series by Chuck Black (Once again, I've only read up to book four, but this is a fun series that "retells" classic Bible stories but in a medieval setting
~Beyond the Bright Sea by Lauren Wolk
~The Ascendance Trilogy by Jennifer A. Nielsen (While this one isn't Christian fiction, it was my favorite series when I was around 15. It's exciting, fun, and clean.)
~Ignite by Jenna Terese (I haven't finished this one yet, but I've gotten halfway into it and I think it's one 13 yr old readers would enjoy.)
~Blue by Joyce Moyer Hostetter (It's been a long time since I've read this one, but I remember enjoying this one a lot as well as two of its sequels, Comfort and Aim.)
~The Dragon Prince Chronicles by Kaytlin, Marissa, and Jaiden Phillips
Most of the books I listed here are between an upper middle grade and lower young adult range. But if you're looking for something more into YA, some Christian authors that I have enjoyed and you might want to check out are Nadine Brandes, Hannah Currie, Stephanie Morrill, Melanie Dickerson, Kara Swanson, and Melanie Cellier.

Issabelle Perry:
Hey there! I found your profile from Jennifer A. Nielsen's question answer about adding LGBTQ+ to the Ascendance series, and I was thrilled to find a like-minded girl! I'm most likely going to keep reading it, since the LGBTQ+ is only going to be in a short story, but I'm definitely not as much of a fan as I used to be. Are there any similar books you've found to it?
