The Best Young Adult of 2025 (So Far)

It’s been a good year for YA (so far). We’ve returned to worlds we regularly long for, met brand new heroines and heroes, hated new villains (in the best way possible), swooned at least a few times and felt the tension of a page turn when we’re equally craving and dreading what’s coming. Our best YA Books of the Year (So Far) boast an abundance of magic and monsters, family and friends, love and loss.  Get ready to feel the feels, fellow kids.
