The YA Book Club discussion

Hi! I was wondering what books you would recommend to everyone or what book/books are your all time favourite!

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
Harry Potter by J.K Rowling
The whole Grishaverse book series by Leigh Bardugo
The Folk of the Air Trilogy by Holly Black
Blood of Eden trilogy by Julie Kagawa
Les Miserables by Victor Hugo (a classic)
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (a classic)

omg you just listed 4 of my favorite series!

Yayyyy, glad that we have a lot of books in common 😁

Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy is a series I will never leave behind. It started as more of a 9-12 series but honestly with the humor and character growth I don't think it has an age limit for who can enjoy it. I'd recommend that to anyone who is looking for something fast and fun with a lot of magic. I've been following this series for almost a decade.

As for other books, I'd always recommend:

- Welcome to Nightvale by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor
- Shades of Magic trilogy by V.E. Schwab

And since I think only one of those fits in the YA category I'll add in:

- Six of Crows & Grishaverse by Leigh Bardugo

Zoo Station- the Story of Christians F.

the Partials series by Dan Wells is really good ! (and I reckon quite underrated)

Hi, I recommend my own novel, titled, Palma de Mallorca Mystique for all YA readers. I get tired of describing it, perhaps I have said enough. In the future I hope to be able to quote a few reviews. Please wait until I upload my latest, bigger, better version. Thanks, Raymond Crane

(i have a few more to list, but it looks like they’ve all been recommended to you already!)

"Concrete Rose" by Angie Thomas... Prequel to, "The Hate U Give"

I recommend the inheritance games and the kingdom of the wicked! and the rest you all have already recommended

all the bright places.

28 summers by Ellin hildebrand

Hello everyone! I’m Anna, I would recommend The Reader by Traci Chee and The Book Thief.

The Reader has pirates, magic, action, and a really cute friends to lovers slowburn romance. (It’s also a trilogy!!)

The Book Thief is just the book thief and everyone should read it.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

I would highly recommend
The wonderling
A children’s bible( this is not a bible)

My favorite is definitely shatter me series

Harry Potter-obviously
Lord of the Rings
The Midnight Library
Fatal Throne
Rooftoppers- for younger readers
Our Little Cruelties
One
Anything by Agatha Christie
All the Bright Places

Six of Crows

The Great Gatsby is my all-time favorite! I also love finding the lesser-known novels of famous writers because it's an opportunity to get some new material from them. Roverrandom by J.R.R. Tolkien was a childhood favorite of mine. Also Eight Cousins and Rose in Bloom by Louisa May Alcott. Any classics like Anne of Green Gables, anything Jane Austen, etc are also SO worth reading!

ninth house - Leigh Bardugo
the poppy wars - R.F Kuang
the school for good and evil - Soman Chainani

The bone season series✨
It is sooo good I don’t know why it’s underrated😔

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller, and The Martian by Andy Weir

Some contemporary/ YA:
The twilight saga
speak
flowers for Algernon
it's kind of a funny story
perks of being a wallflower

it's okay if you don't like any of these, just some of my favorites!

Finished ‘The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo’ two days ago and it’s probably one of the best books I’ve ever read, recommend it to literally everyone!!
