There’s not a whole lot of genre or tone overlap there so I’m struggling to come up with suggestions.

There’s a lot of content for Percy Jackson if they end up liking them (children of the Greek gods go on adventures).
I’d also maybe suggest Peter and the Star Catchers by Dave Berry (Peter Pan prequel adventure), and the Flora Segunda series by Ysabeau S. Wilce (young girl in a magical house gets lost and uncovers Secrets).
Has she read the new sequel to the hunger games? It’s pretty good, I’d definitely recommend if not.
Patrick Ness is a really great author and his chaos walking series is fantastic, I’d highly recommend that. He also has some shorter books if those are too much.
Similar to mockingbird, maybe the adventures of huckleberry finn?
She’d probably enjoy Rainbow Rowell, especially her Simon Snow series
A Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
The Enchanted Forest series by Patricia Wrede. It comes across kind of young when you look at it but it’s great. A very empowered princess goes to live with a dragon.
Dark Lord of Derkholm and Year of the Griffin by Diana Wynn Jones. Also Howl’s Moving Castle, same author. Fantasy with a quirky sense of humor.
Homecoming by Cynthia Voigt. Realistic fiction about a group of kids who are abandoned by their mother and walk to find a family member.
Any book by Mary Roach. She writes narrative nonfiction on a different topic each book.
What If by Randall Munroe. Takes weird questions (like “what if you threw a baseball at the speed of light” or “what if the solar system was filled with soup”) and answers them seriously.
