The Best Young Adult Books of September
A time-travel heist on the RMS Titanic, an all-out revolution at a Texas high school, and a kingdom of snow on the brink of a magical war…
Welcome to the world of irresistible young adult fiction! Every month, our team takes a look at what books are being published—and how early readers are responding to them. We use this information to curate a list of soon-to-be-beloved favorites, from contemporary tales set in the suburbs to fantasy epics in realms of mystery and mischief.
For September, we've got two buzzy debuts, plus a heartbreaking LGBT romance from the author of More Happy Than Not. Add the books that catch your eye to your Want to Read shelf and let us know what you're reading and recommending in the comments.

No shoutout for Shadowhouse Fall? :/
I mean, I haven't read it yet, but it was one of my highest anticipated releases this year.

I've read Black Bird of the Gallows, and really loved it, and I'm looking forward to reading Moxie, Girls Made of Snow and Glass, and They Both Die at the End.
Loved Girls Made of Snow and Glass, one of the most refreshing YA books I've read in a long, long time!
I really loved Black Bird of the Gallows and it's one of the best YA Paranormal books I've read this year!
A lot on here that made my TBR pile, but I also loved Tower of Dawn, and really want to read Warcross and One Dark Throne.
I can't wait to see your October & Halloween book choices for Halloween. There are some good YA Halloween books this year that are both funny & spooky.

I've finished reading Lady Midnight recently and think that it's a very good book. Especially if you have read other books by Cassandra Clare that are about Shadowhunters.

The Young Elites series (Marie Lu)? the Legend series (also by Marie Lu)? the An Ember In The Ashes series (Sabaa Tahir)? the Zodiac series (Romina Russell)?

If there's no tomorrow is one hell of a book i can read over and over and over again. I so much love this book that I have to put on my noise cancelling headphones on to avoid outside distractions lol.
On the other hand, Girls made of snow gets me all excited because I could easily relate it with the popular walt disney animation pictures. By the way, its my Birthday today.
