Natalie Koch - De Verborgen Universiteit ( the hidden college)
It's a dutch book, so not too useful for most people here, but it's a great book. It's very clear that the author get her inspiration from Harry Potter and doesn't try to hide it. Which is fine, because it was written for an older audience.
The story is set in the modern world, on a university in London. Where normal teachings go on, but there also exists a paralel school for magically gifted young adults. It focuses on a 20 or so girl going there and finding out the history and mystery of her dad on that school. It still has a decent tween factor, but like I said, it's written for an older audience than HP was.The book managed to fill a void I felt after HP ended and I grew old enough to not enjoy the earlier books anymore. It'll always hold a special place in my heart for that.
Also, I used to want to be a writer myself and the writer of that book was al too happy to chat with me on Facebook and give me pointers on how to write better. She didn't have to chat to a random fan, but she did and that scored her massive bonus points as well.
