Hey YA Pals!
Time to snap up some of the best YA ebook deals and load up your reading life. As we continue into month two hundred of quarantine — at least where I am — this is your opportunity to build your “going to spend the nice seasons in my hammock reading” personal digital library.
All deals are current as of Friday, May 1.
I loved I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter by Erika L. Sánchez. It’s a total steal at $2.
Did you put off reading the new Marcus Zusak book because it’s a wrist breaker (aka: big and heavy)? Grab Bridge of Clay as an ebook instead for $3.
Another wrist breaker you can grab is the first in a series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff. Aurora Rising is $2. If you want more from the writing duo, Illuminae, first in their previous series, is also on sale for $2.
Elizabeth Lim’s Spin The Dawn, first in a series that has comps to Project Runway and Mulan, is $3.
Jean Kwok writes my favorite crossover books. Girl In Translation might be marketed for adults, but it’s perfect for YA readers, too. $2.
Want an excellent, classic YA comic? Gene Luen Yang’s American Born Chinese is $3.
Catfishing on Catnet by Naomi Kritzer, which just won an Edgar Award, is on sale for $3.
Two first books in fantasy series are on sale for $2 and $3 respectively: Beholder by Anna Bright and Bloodleaf by Crystal Smith.
Want a mystery? April Henry’s The Girl I Used To Be is $3.
A “hilarious wilderness comedy?” Sign me up for this one! Jeff Strand’s I Have A Bad Feeling About This is $2.
Maurene Goo is a YA gem. Grab The Way You Make Me Feel for $3.
A Death-Struck Year by Makiia Lucier is on sale for $3.
Itching for good sports writing? Carl Deuker’s Gym Candy is currently $3.
I haven’t read this one, but everyone I know loves this weird little book. Hannah Moskowitz’s A History of Glitter and Blood is $3.
A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness is a whole $1.
Julie Buxbaum’s Tell Me Three Things is $2.
Want something dark, fantastical, and gothic? Emily A. Duncan’s Wicked Saints – first in a series! – is on sale for $3.
This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith is a nice romance for this season and it’s only $2.
Feed by MT Anderson, a YA classic of science fiction that feels way too realistic, is $1.
The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert is $3. This deal expires on Sunday, so grab it sooner, rather than later.
First in series, The Gilded Wolves by Roshani Chokshi, is $3 through Sunday.
Susan Dennard’s Truthwitch, first in the Witchlands series, is $3 through Sunday.
*All* three books in Jessica Spotswood’s Cahill Witch trilogy are on sale. Want a witchy read about sisters? Grab Born Wicked for $2, Star Cursed for $4, and Sisters’ Fate for $3. That would be $10 for the whole shebang!
Thanks for hanging out, and we’ll see you on Monday. I hope you find your next great read this weekend.
