Hey YA Readers!
This is my first weekend home in months, and my plans include little more than cleaning the house and digging into as many books as humanly possible. I will probably also buy way more than I could ever possibly read.
As a way to help you enjoy the weekend and also indulge in some book buying, here’s a look at a bunch of great YA ebook deals this weekend. They’re all active as of Friday, November 15.
Grab your favorite cuppa, a cozy blanket, and get your read on.
Deepest Roots by Miranda Asebedo is $2 and a book for readers who want something in the magical realism realm.
Grab the fantasy romance A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer for $2.
If you read The Star-Touched Queen, the sequel A Crown of Wishes by Roshani Chokshi is $3. The first book in the series is a little pricier.
Toil and Trouble, an anthology of witchy stories edited by Tess Sharpe and Jessica Spotswood, is $2
Get your ghosts on with The Walls Around Us by Nova Ren Suma for $2
A Blade So Black by LL McKinney, a take on Alice in Wonderland, is $3
The Hummingbird Dagger by Cindy Anstey can be yours for $3. I don’t know a whole lot about it, but the comps to Jane Austen with mystery and murder are promising.
The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness, a classic YA read, is $2.
Want a comics-themed read? Comics Will Break Your Heart by Faith Erin Hicks is $3.
If You Could Be Mine by Sara Farizan is worth way more than the $2 price it has. It’s a f/f love story featuring some tremendous barriers to their relationship and both leads are girls of color.
My Family Divided by Diana Guerrero is $3 — this is the YA adaptation of Guerrero’s adult memoir.
Want weird? MARTians by Blythe Woolston will do it for you. $2
Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson is $4 and launches a fantasy series.
The Prey by Tom Isbell is $3 and is also the first book in a series.
Jackaby by William Ritter will scratch your Holmes itch and it, too, is the beginning of a series. $2.
Did you read Anne of Green Gables? What about the Complete Emily Starr Trilogy, the “darker” series by LM Montgomery? Grab the trilogy for $1.
And last, but not least, check this out. You can get the entire Skinjacker trilogy by Neal Shusterman for just $5. Sweet!
Thanks for hanging out, and we’ll see you on Monday.
