I'm looking for books that touch some serious and sad topics but have witty writing and aren't depressing the whole way through. Usually I read mystery books but it's not a requirement. As long as the story and characters are interesting they can be any genre.
I would also like if the books don't focus on romantic relationships. They can contain romance but only if they don't revolve only around it.
Something similar to the movie "Whiplash" or "The Shadow of the Wind" by Zafón.
(Also without any NSFW).

I have not read this book, but I believe “The Heart’s Invisible Furies” might fit what you are looking for – though I think it might have a lot of romantic relationships.
I was just looking into this book this evening to see if I could handle it (I don’t like sad books) and everywhere stressed that is is both sad and hilarious.
