YA books on your to-read list

Post by Heidi M Simone »

Gravy came up with this last time young adult was chosen for our genre discussion, and I really liked it, so I'm borrowing it for this month. :tiphat:

I've been meaning to read:
  • Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
  • Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
  • A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas
  • Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas
What about you? What are some YA books that are on your to-read list?

Oh really? Maybe once I finish Before the Devil Breaks You, we can do some more read-a-longs. :D

Gladly. :)

What about this one: Dead Voices. It came out this month. I tagged you on that thread.

Nice! :)

I actually just saw the tag (going through my emails now) and would love to read it with you and Gravy! I requested it from my library and there are two people ahead of me, but I can't imagine it taking too long to get. I can keep you posted, though :tiphat:

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs is also on my to-read list. It's not my usual type of book so it's taking some effort to convince myself to read it.
