48 Highly Anticipated YA Novels for the Rest of 2020
Magic and myth, getting real and standing up for what’s right, love and longing, growing up and falling in love. Get ready for some of the best young adult novels of the year, all coming right up. From Where Dreams Descend’s dangerous games to a ghost who conjures up some serious complications in Cemetery Boys, YA fantasy’s pull remains strong this fall. Meanwhile, contemporary YA will keep your heart racing with stories of an aspiring singer whose big break goes horribly wrong in Grown and a teen who sees her summer of discovery shaken by her father’s sudden departure in Breathless.
To create our list of buzzy new young adult novels publishing between now and the start of 2021, we focused on what Goodreads members can’t wait to read. How do we measure that anticipation? By taking a look at how many times a book has been added to Want to Read shelves. We also factored in the reaction (and reviews) of early readers.

I can't wait to see these covers in person, especially Star Daughter, Where Dreams Descend, and Oculta!
For the record, I read the sneak peek of Cemetery Boys and it is just *chef's kiss*So looking forward to that one, Star Daughter, and Grown particularly!!

It's gorgeous! I should be getting a copy by the end of the month and I can't wait!

I'm so excited for those three, especially Cemetery Boys. It sounds like a perfect autumn read!

Right? It's a perfect October book I feel. and I haven't seen much trans boy rep before in YA fantasy, much less Latinx trans boy rep, so I feel like it's going to be really interesting in that regard! It's really just many things that I'm very on board with all mixed together.

I haven't really seen much trans boy rep (and especially Latinx trans boy rep) in general, I can't wait to read it!
Just finished reading #Find Layla by Meg Elison. Great book!
Can anyone recommend a great book or series for a 12 year old? My daughter is an avid reader... next one i have put on hold for her is The Knife of Never Letting Go... I'd rather stay off the romance themed books though please.... TIA
