Recommendations for someone who’s read all of the popular Y/A

[Amanda]

Hello! I’m looking for some books that I may not have heard of before. I’ve been reading y/a since I was in 5th grade so I’ve basically read all of the “classics” I’ve been active on booktok, bookstigram, and book tube, so I know all of the popular recommendations lol. If you have a book that maybe is not well known and your looking for someone else to obsess over it with (believe me, I’ve been there) then now is that chance!

In turn, I would like to recommend a book that is not well known at all, but is by far one of my favorites! Run to Earth by S.F Mazhar ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... ). So far, no one I know has read it, and I would desperately like to discuss it with somebody! Please feel free to send a friend request!

Mask of Shadows by Lindsay Price is a ya fantasy duology that isn't really popular.
Ash and Huntress by Malinda Lo
The Kingdom of Fire series by Jessica Cluess I don't think is super popular but you might've heard of it.
The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater you've probably heard of this one, but just in case xD

Well, if you don't have anything against indie authors, there's this to check out: https://www.purpleshelfclub.com/vote-...

It's a contest for a chance to get free copies of a newly released book by indie authors. The theme of the contest is Fantasy, but some of the entries are YA novels.

The Shard
Adapted: Book One: Heat

[Lâm]

Eyes

If you're looking for something new, perhaps this book will be right for you. This is a story book about thriller that I really enjoy.

I loved the glittering court trilogy and the lone city trilogy!

[BiBookDemon]

Legendborn by Tracy Deonne

[D.T.]

[booklover]

The darkest minds trilogy

[Bláthnaid]

I’ve read most of the YA ‘classics’ too, I started reading them at 11, Everything Everything is what got me into reading!

Here are some of my book recs ( check TWs :D )

- This Lie Will Kill You by Chelsea Pitcher (a bit like One Of Us Is Lying and great if you are looking for a thriller/murder mystery)

- Orbiting Jupiter by Gary D.Schmidt (written from the perspective of a 10/12 year old so the language is really simple even though it covers big and important topics and is also super fast paced)

- My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga ( a little like All The Bright Places and covers a lot of important issues whilst also being thought-provoking and covering a little bit of romance)


Anyways, those are some of my favourite reads that I don’t really see on Book social media accounts. My apologies if they are popular and I just didn’t know. Happy reading!
