Nonfiction, Surprising Adaptations, and More: Your YA Book News and New Books, August 12, 2021

Hey YA Readers!

Before launching into this week’s book news and new books, an apology. In the deals newsletter on Saturday, I attributed The Monarchs to Dhonielle Clayton and Kass Morgan, when it should be attributed to Danielle Paige and Kass Morgan. Dhonielle is the author of books like The Belles and coauthor of the outstanding Blackout.

Let’s catch up on this week’s YA book news and new YA books.
