The Graveyard Book. It's about a young boy who is raised by ghosts. It's funny and wonderful. I succumbed to it in a very happy weekend.

There's a great fantasy series by Laurie Marks, in the Mists of Amazon mode:

Elemental Logic series

The Elemental Logic series by Laurie J. Marks is set in the world of Shaftal. The series tells the story of Shaftal in four separate but chronological novels. Book 3, Water Logic, is published by Small Beer Press and released June, 2007.

Fire. Earth. Water. Air.
These elements have sustained the peaceful people of Shaftal for generations, with their subtle powers of intuition, healing, joy, and truth. But now Shaftal has been overrun, and the ancient logic of the land is being replaced by the logic of hatred.

This isn't at all in a category that you suggested, but I just got done reading The Absolutely Diary of a Part-Time Indian and loved it and am determined to spread the word about it. It is one of the most precious books I have ever read and if you haven't read it you should! I hope you have a great time reading. I love you SOOOOO much! xoxo

So good! I have this and can bring it to camp for you if you like. My writing teacher gave it to me after she read my bookette.

(also, sorry for commenting on other people's comments :)
