If she loved Harry Potter, some urban fantasy might be worth trying. Dresden Files is one of the archetypal examples that everyone brings up, though it does have a first-person Guy Perspective complete with a bit of a staring problem and some unconscious condescension/patronization (early-series in particular, he does get better on that one). I still love the books and I know a bunch of wimminfolks do as well, but it's worth noting in case that'd be a big turn-off. Skip straight to the third book if you try Dresden tho - first two are skippable and not the best intro. Some people say skip to fourth, but those people are wrong. Third-book intro place ftw.

To run through a couple other urban fantasies:

Twenty Palaces: Very very good IMHO, but a bit (kinda) (sometimes a lot) bleak and sad. YMMV.

Magic Ex Libris: Books are magic. A bit cheesy but a fun premise. I read the first two and I might keep going if I ever diminish the size of Mt Readmore.

Eric Carter: Pitch-black supernatural LA noir. If she doesn't like GoT b/c it's too dark this is a definite no-no, but I thought I'd mention just because I like these books and you never know.

Aaand there's a bunch more UF out there but I'm kinda worn out on typing right now. Hope some of this helped!

it has a few odd relationship parts but it doesnt take from the book in my opinion.

If you enjoyed Inkheart, you should check out the Magic Ex Libris series. It starts with Libromancy.

It's my guilty pleasure reading of 2013/2014. It's purely a wish-fulfilment type of artifact story that has to do with the love of books. Imagine a group of book lovers who could reach into a story and pull any artifact out of it. That healing vial from The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe... done! The sonic screwdriver... done... but doesn't mean you know how to use it! How many different types of vampires exist... oh shit... they got the Twilight Sparklers!

Its quite a fun endulgement series.
