What are young adult books?

Young adult, or YA, describes an intended readership rather than a single genre. YA books can explore relationships, identity and growing independence through contemporary stories, romance, fantasy, mystery or science fiction. This collection includes books by John Green, Akwaeke Emezi, Femi Fadugba, Leah Konen and other authors.

Which stories can you explore?

Pet by Akwaeke Emezi

Pet follows Jam as she confronts a threat in a society that insists its monsters are gone. Its speculative story raises questions about truth, protection and what happens when a community refuses to acknowledge harm.

The Upper World by Femi Fadugba

The Upper World connects Esso and Rhia through a story involving glimpses of the past and future. It combines a South London setting with science-fiction ideas, offering a different kind of adventure from an imagined fantasy kingdom.

What other young adult books are listed?

The collection includes An Abundance of Katherines by John Green, Love and Other Train Wrecks by Leah Konen, Tilly in Technicolor by Mazey Eddings and Mere Mortals by Erin Jade Lange. Read their individual descriptions to compare the relationships, settings and themes that interest you.

How should you choose a YA book?

Start with the reader’s preferred genre and check the synopsis, themes and any content guidance. The YA label does not mean every book suits every teen. Also check series position: a later volume may depend on events and characters introduced elsewhere.
