What are some good ones for a teenager? I’m a good reader so I want something more advanced than the regular teen mystery book, yet something not too gory or nightmarish (I have an active imagination =P)

I am going to recommend a mix of types, from classics to contemporary:
The Hound of the Baskervilles — Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes — could read any of them, such as The Sign of Four)
The Maltese Falcon — Dashiell Hammett
The Long Goodbye — Raymond Chandler
(the two classic American private eyes Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe)
Murder of Roger Ackroyd — Agatha Christie
(English puzzle mystery, by the best known author)
39 Steps — John Buchan (clasic adventure mystery)
Some Funny mysteries:
The Hot Rock — Donald Westlake
Fletch — Gregory MacDonald
The Spellman Files — Lisa Lutz
HIstorical Mysteries –
Time and Again — Jack Finney
Daughter of Time — Josephine Tey
Name of the Rose — Umberto Eco
More authors to read one or two of:
Rex Stout
Tony Hillerman
Sue Grafton
Walter Mosley
Ruth Rendell
I’ve tried to stay away from overly violent or “nightmarish” books, but some of Ruth Rendell’s books can be pretty intense. There are of course many more to choose from, buyt I though a selection rather than a comprehensive list would be useful to you.
My time by mary higgens clark its murder mystery.
An authors name you click on an authors name you click on an authors name you will probably want to cook desserts try joanne fluke her books will probably want to.
For me.
