Lockwood and Co., Lockwood and Co., Lockwood and Co.! 

It's a wonderful series by Jonathan Stroud with a fair amount of mystery, a lot of awesome comedy, a small amount of creepiness, and . . . Well, it's not a ghost story, exactly, but it's about a world where humans have to learn to live with 'The Problem', as Stroud puts it. It is a fantastic series, and I highly recommend it.

I definitely recommend "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman. Amazing story; changed my life. There's a movie too.
