Removed The Queen of Nothing, which got an earlier 2019 release.
Thanks for the heads up! I removed that one.
Removed Reverie, which got an earlier 2019 release.
Re-added The Madness Blooms. Looks like it's flipped back to 2020.
I've moved Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé to the 2021 list - it was originally scheduled for 2020 but the author has confirmed on Twitter that it's moved back.
Thanks, Becca! I also removed the untitled Salazar Chronicles book, which looks like it got pushed to 2021.
I am LIVING FOR THESE COVERS I AM CRYING.
@Rainbowheart I picked up a few of the books you were the sole voter on if you need room.
Thanks, Rez! That will come in handy. I'm always running out of votes, lol.
Did some cleanup on this list and removed several pre-2020 releases, along with The Scavenger Hunt, The Passing Playbook, This Grave Curse, This Golden Flame, Girls at the Edge of the World, Hazel Bly and the Deep Blue Sea, and The Many Half-Lived Lives of Sam Sylvester, which got pushed to 2021. Also deleted Rise as One, Stand as One, The Ghosts We Keep, and Last Night at the Telegraph Club, current release dates unknown.
removed the watchermaker & the duke #2 (confirmed 2021 release)
Red, White and Royal Blue is neither YA nor a 2020 release, but it's on here still
Thanks for the heads up! I removed that one.
The House in the Cerulean Sea appears twice.Are we allowed to add YA books in other languages ?
Thanks for the heads up! I actually removed The House in the Cerulean Sea because it's adult fiction, not YA.You can add YA or middle grade books in other languages as long as the original publication date is 2020.
Someone changed the title of my list, so I have changed it back. Please DO NOT change the title. This list is acceptable to have both fiction and non-fiction, and there is no need to put a keyword in the title.
Le Berceau, by Julius Eks, needs to be removed. It's New Adult, not YA.
Thanks for the heads up! I removed that one. I also deleted The Bright Lands, Sleepwater Static, and Pretty Dudes, which are clearly adult fiction, along with a few other pre-2020 releases.
Thanks for the heads up, Noah. I removed those titles along with Middletown, Blackwater, Bad Habits, Tell No Tales, Wider Than the Sky, and Girls of Fate and Fury, which also got pushed to 2021. Also deleted From A to Z, which is a picture book, and The Madness Blooms, which got cancelled, plus some pre-2020 releases.
This list was a huge mess. Removed a bunch of non-2020 releases along with Boyfriend Material and Exciting Times, which are adult fiction.
