Just finished the City of Ghosts, Tunnel of Bones, and Bridge of souls trilogy from VE Schwab. They're YA fantasy set in modern times, the protagonist being a 12-year-old girl who's best friend is a ghost. Light and easy reading, and a nice fit for younger audiences.

I've been working through Schwab's works after reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, which is also fantasy, but definitely for older audiences. The chapters alternate in both time and characters, and there are enough twists in the story to avoid predictability.
