YA 2019 Year End Book Summary

* Mammoth by Jill Baguchinsky was published in 2018

2019 was a GREAT year for new Young Adult fiction.

 DPL welcomed debut authors such as Lillian Clark (The Immoral Code), Hafsah Faizal (We Hunt the Flame) and Maika Moulite (Dear Haiti, Love Alaine). 

And we bittersweetly shelved the final installments of several different adventurous and lovable series such as Melissa de la Cruz's Alex & Eliza Trilogy, Marissa Meyer's Renegades trilogy, Neal Shusterman's Arc of a Scythe series and Stephanie Garber's Caraval trilogy.

Of all the books published in 2019 there were 5 that stood out as YOUR favorites.

In order of popularity:

1. Ghostbusters: Crossing Over by Eric Burnham

2. The Wicked King by Holly Black

3. King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo

 4. Only A Breath Apart by Katie McGarry

5. Pretend She's Here by Luanne Rice

To say we're excited to see what books 2020 will give us is an understatement.
