Holiday Reads: Best YA Books 2017
I’ve already covered the best fiction books – now it’s time to move into some of the most anticipated YA fiction of 2017. Whether you’re into epic sci-fi series or heartfelt looks at teenagehood, all of these are worth your time – whether you’re shopping for an actual young adult or simply indulging in this perennially popular genre.
Turtles All The Way Down by John Green
If there’s one book on this list you’ve likely already heard of this year, it’s this one, from the bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars. Why the hype? Well apart from his last book’s crazy popularity, it’s been five loooong years since the previously prolific author has released a new title – and for good reason. In interviews, Green has been candid about his lifelong struggle with mental health issues, which caused a ‘medium-bad’ episode in 2015. Writing became torturous, until it didn’t, and started resembling something like therapy. In his most personal novel to date, the story centers on the life of Aza Holmes, a teen struggling with obsessive-compulsive disorder that very much takes her out of the moment and into her head, which fears she may be contracting life-ending diseases pretty much always. Aza is offered a distraction, however, in the form of a $100,000 reward for information about the disappearance of Russell Pickett; local billionaire that’s wanted for various crimes and happens to be the father of a childhood friend named Davis. As Aza and her friend Daisy put on their sleuthing hats, Aza must navigate a whole range of things through the lens of her illness, including but not limited to: Star Wars fan fiction, an ancient lizard, Applebee’s, an underground art show, and yes, teenage love as she reconnects with Davis.
Warcross by Marie Lu
Author of not one, but two bestselling series, Marie Lu is about to pull a literary hat trick with her latest series, which centers on a near-future society where virtual reality is everything – the world is obsessed with a virtual battle game called Warcross that’s one part Hunger Games, one part Quidditch. Our hero is Emika Chen, a bounty hunter for hire and hacker that’s struggling to make ends meet – until a desperate hack puts her in the spotlight right at the opening of a global Warcross tournament. Soon Emika is whisked off to Japan, where Warcross’ enigmatic young founder, Hideo Tanaka, gives her the most dangerous bounty hunting mission of her life. Hidden in plain sight as part of the tournament, Emika must unravel the mystery of who is threatening Warcross, what Hideo’s keeping a secret from her, and the pressure of her newfound fame. It’s a super engaging book that ticks all the boxes for entertaining YA, all packaged in a sleek, fun package – the inevitable movie adaptation should be amazing!
Girls Made of Snow and Glass by Melissa Bashardoust
Fairy tale retellings are a popular genre in general, and Melissa Barshardoust’s feminist take on Snow White is enchanting indeed – with a little extra magic sprinkled in. Snow White is portrayed by Princess Lynet, an orphan who is the apple of her father’s eye, until she discovers a disturbing secret about herself and her relationship to snow. Her evil stepmother takes the form of Queen Mina, a woman we find out through flashbacks is actually truly heartless; her heart replaced with one made of glass at a young age, giving her the ability to manipulate glass in many forms to do her bidding. The lines between good and evil aren’t quite so crystal clear however, as we learn about Mina’s troubled childhood and the imposing role her father played in the path that leads her to become a queen (and her desire to be loved, above all, when she believes it’s impossible), as well as the complex bond between Mina and Lynet – one where stepmother and child want to help the other, but realize they’re ultimately in opposition. Like with any story retelling, this one is primarily fun as you pick out the threads of various tellings of this story you’ve likely already encountered (from Disney to movies) and see how Bashardoust puts her own fresh spin on things again.
Dear Martin by Nic Stone
One of the most important things YA fiction can do is illuminate issues and causes for a younger audience, shaping them to become more mindful adults. Between Angie Thomas’ amazing The Hate U Give (which I also highly recommend – and who lends her name to the cover line) and Nic Stone’s Dear Martin, we’ve got some pretty compelling reads for young people when it comes to the increasingly critical topic of race relations, particularly in the U.S. The book focuses in on Justyce, an aptly named protagonist who questions the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King in a journal he drafts to him (alternately told through a third-person POV for the crux of the story), especially after he’s caught in the crosshairs – pretty much literally – of a white cop who unlawfully arrests him. The book, though slim, brings to life a portrayal of life as a young black man in America so vividly and stunningly, it’s incredible – and a must-read for young adults and adults alike. Heartbreaking yet powerful, this book takes a wholly political topic and winnows it down to the real-life impacts on a single person’s life – while somehow simultaneously providing a lot of context and commentary on America’s race issues at large. While The Hate U Give is getting a lot of attention as of late, don’t bypass this one – they’re equally great and important reads!
Renegades by Marissa Meyer
Anti-heroes are starting to become a more and more prominent theme in YA literature – sorry Katniss, but we want to see what The Hunger Games was like from the perspective of Kato. Of course, the authors of these books are smart enough to ensure their characters have some redeeming qualities and a mission you can believe in. Such is the case with Renegades, a book told through the eyes of Nova, part of a villainous group that was overthrown by a group known as Renegades (X-men-adjacent people with extraordinary capabilities). Nova’s vengeful mission to destroy the Renegades however, is complicated when she crosses path with Adrian, a member of the ‘good guys’ contingent that not only illuminates what his side stands for, but truly believes in the greater good within Nova. In other words – imagine if Robin got the Joker all tangled up in wondering whether he really should go after Batman. That’s the gist of this action-packed story that flips the classic superhero showdown of good vs. evil on its head, from one of YA’s most prolific (and beloved) writers.
Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds
The plotline of this book takes place over – wait for it – 60 seconds. If that sounds crazy, it’s not – Jason Reynolds, currently considered a rock star in the YA genre, crushes the concept in this very unique story. Will’s brother is killed in front of him; the next day, Will goes out to seek revenge. But as he gets into the elevator with the haziest of vengeful plans, something odd happens – the elevator stops at every floor and someone gets on. The catch? The people who get on the elevator are all people Will knows – and well, they’re dead. The addition of these elevator passengers throws Will (and the reader, at least at first) for a loop as new questions are asked – you’ll practically be holding your breath as you tear through this one. Apart from the magical realism concept, there’s also the fact the book is written in verse; each page is a mini-chapter / poem which makes it even more imminently readable. This one is serving up all the buzz – and is being mentioned in the same breath as The Hate U Give and Dear Martin – read it before your friends spill the ending for you!
Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart
Speaking of books with unusual formats, YA psychological suspense writer E. Lockhart is back with her first book since the masterful We Were Liars – and it’s a whole different twist on twisted. The book starts at the end, which isn’t uncommon (I talked about it in my previous Holiday Reads roundup on fiction!) but…it literally chronologically works backwards. Each chapter skips back a week from the events you’ve just read, meaning the puzzle and mystery of the book is unwound in reverse; you might pick up on a little detail in one chapter and then several later, get why it was mentioned at all. Apart from the neat way this works, the book itself is plenty engaging and intriguing; When we meet Jule, she’s going by Imogen, a girl that’s clearly on the run. But from what? Who? Meanwhile, we come to realize that there actually is a real person named Imogen, with some eerie similarities to Jule – and while it seems that their paths have crossed by sheer fate, as the book unravels, you begin to realize that’s not exactly the case; that one of the girls had quite a heavy hand in connecting the two of them. Again, the questions will keep you going – why? Who? When? While I didn’t find this one quite as spellbinding as We Were Liars I have to say it’s still worth your time, particularly if you like thrillers and psychological books.
Forest of a Thousand Lanterns by Julie C. Dao
This book has been quietly building up legions of fans online since its release – and that wasn’t even that long ago! Much like Renegades, Julie C. Dao’s debut novel is about an anti-hero. Our anti-heroine is Xifeng, who believes her destiny – based on a prophecy – is to have ultimate power. In other words, to become an Empress. Living a miserable life in a small town, Xifeng finally decides to escape and pursue this path, at any cost. With hints of Macbeth (power and prophecy corrupt!) this is a fascinating look at a story where the main character isn’t necessarily likable – but is certainly enchanting in her own way as you watch what lengths she’ll go to in pursuit of supposed happiness. Not only is Xifeng herself a fascinating character to follow, the book’s setting really stands out in the typical YA dystopian / fantasy / gritty urban settings, as it’s set in a Far East-inspired land (and yes, there are still some fantastical elements because why not?)
Jane Unlimited by Kristin Cashore
I’ve never read a Kristin Cashore novel before but I was plenty intrigued to do so after diving into this mysterious, engaging book. It reminded very, very loosely of Caraval in terms of the setting of a magical place where anything can happen, only with a lot more abstract rules. Our hero is Jane, who has lived an ordinary life that is become downright bland. That is, until she’s invited to an enchanted, mysterious mansion known as Tu Reviens, where the impossible is possible, and every choice you make matters. Much like a few others on this list, Cashore is also an author defying genre expectations, as this novel doesn’t exactly follow a linear path. In fact in some ways I’d describe it as a modern take on a choose your own adventure book, as the story spirals out from a relatively linear point into all these different variants and unexpected twists and turns based on a particular decision Jane makes. If you like the idea of a book with multiple endings and how they can mirror (or wildly differ) from each other, then you’ll like this slightly odd duck of a tale – it’s definitely a change of pace not only from YA, but from anything I’ve read as of late!
Zero Repeat Forever by G.S. Prendergast
This book reminded me a little bit of the bestselling series The Fifth Wave. What elements are similar you ask? Well, it involves an alien invasion of a species called Nahx as they take over Earth. It also involves an unlikely alliance between two members of either side of the battle – Eighth, a soldier who fails his mission, and Raven, a summer camp teen that loses her boyfriend (and the link to her previous life). A series of events thrusts the twosome together as they navigate this new world order, as something I could barely call frenemies, although, given this is YA, you can expect some sparks beginning to fly between them as the story progresses. What’s extra cool about this one is the Canadian factor! The book is actually written by a Canadian and set in Canada – two very rare things not only for YA fiction, but for the sci-fi genre in general. If you want to treat someone to a gripping read while supporting a local author, this is your best bet for sure.
Landscape With Invisible Hand by M.T. Anderson
And to round things out with one other sci-fi related title, we’ve got this slim volume from M.T. Anderson, that I would only loosely call sci-fi, and only loosely call YA. The story posits a peaceful alien invasion that ultimately upends society, causing humans to have to be mighty crafty to have money for even the most basic of essentials. Our main characters Adam (an artist) and his girlfriend Chloe come up with the idea of recording themselves on retro-inspired dates (these aliens dig all things retro) on a pay-per-view basis…and while their little plot works, it puts a serious strain on their relationship. It makes you think about weird things as well, such as the commodization of love and intimacy, which is essentially what these two offer up in exchange for money (much like some celeb couples…) The book is a quick, short read, only about novella length really, making it a great choice for a quick plane trip or a lazy afternoon where you just want to get wrapped up in another world – and think.
