This summer, a bunch of great teen books are being released! Quite a few of them, I have on my To-Be-Read list. And as the summer continues, that list keeps getting longer. So, I thought I would share some of the great teen books that I am looking forward to this summer.
Swipe by Evan Angler (Everyone gets the Mark at age 13. But what happens to those who get the Mark and don't come back?)
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo (getting lots of buzz)
Long Lankin by Lindsey Barraclough
Seraphina by Rachel Hartman (It’s about dragons, enough said.)
Insignia by S.J. Kincaid (teen recruited for World War III)
Keeping the Castle by Patrice Kindl
The Vindico by Wesley King (supervillains trying to recruit new members, sounds hilarious)
Team Human by Justine Larbalestier (Sick of vampires and werewolves? Then join Team Human!)
Bloody Chester by J.T. Perry (western)
For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund (Jane Austen’s Persuasion set in space)
Someday Dancer by Sarah Rubin (inspirational sports story)
The Waiting Sky by Lara Zielin (about tornado chasing)
I enjoy manga titles as well, and there are a couple that are coming out this year that look awesome. One series is a new take on an old favorite, and was a very popular cartoon here in the U.S. for a while. Sailor Moon is back with a new look, old friends and fresh storylines!
Blue Exorcist by Kazue Kato
Pretty Guardian, Sailor Moon by Naoko Takeuchi
Black Butler by Yana Toboso
August has some great new releases coming out as well. I will definitely be adding my name to the request list for a couple of these titles!
Glitch by Heather Anastasiu
Poison Tree by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes (new series that sounds really good)
The Raft by S.A. Bodeen (oceanic survival story)
The Dark Unwinding by Sharon Cameron (steampunk thriller)
Palace of Stone by Shannon Hale (sequel to the Princess Academy)
Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne (Earth experiencing a rash of disasters)
The Rise of Nine by Pittacus Lore (3rd book in the Lorien Legacies)
