So in terms of books, I have two recommendations (besides the Dresden Files which are listed as part of the inspirational material for the game).
The first is the Mercy Thompson Series by Patricia Briggs.
It's a great view of how someone with fairly limited powers can interact with things far more powerful than themselves. And the Fairies in particular in the series are a great mix of interesting and fairly dark. Plus, the main character is pretty much a Skin Walker, for those interested in that.

It's pretty dark/mysterious and shows that the creatures like werewolves and vampires can still be monsters while being characters. This one is definitely more in the feel of this game in that the world's feel is pretty oppressive and dark.
