The Harry Potter series.
My girls like the Traveling Pants series and the Nancy Drew books. Speaking of which, there is an excellent series of computer games for girls based on the Nancy Drew series. Lots of puzzles and stuff you have to work out. Certainly challenged my kids.
The Clique - for girls
Chicken Soup for the Pre-teen Soul.
For profession recommendations, you might also check the various books on Reading Aloud to your kids by Jim Trelease. He has books to recommend in all age groups. And, as always, check with your local librarian.
