I read this book around 2017-2018, I have had no luck trying to find the title or even the author. The world has vampires, dragons, witches but all the humans tend to lead a normal life. A girl who has an older sister and younger brother, her father is a meteorologist. The girl breaks her arm. There's something about writing in a diary. A dog / cat gets taken by the mist. The family realizes that the mist is coming after one of them so they sell their house and go on the run. A boy tags along with the family, I think he has a lizard or newt with him. They visit an observatory possibly? They travel to the grandmother's house, who is witch, the house is shaped like a crow. The grandmother tries to help them but send them to the edge / end of the world. So they find a sailer and travel to the end of the world. In the end of the book, the older sister gets taken by the mist, the family thought all along it was the younger brother.

Maybe My Diary from the Edge of the WorldIf it turns out to be the right book, you will be the third person in two weeks that's been looking for the same thing. What are the odds?
