Hello #bookcommunity!
Any book recommendations for 13-16 year olds? I'm teaching a creative writing class for kids from this age range. I'm finding it tricky since they've aged out of MG, but aren't ready for some of the YA books yet (especially for the younger ones in the group.)

✨ YA BOOK NEWS ✨

I'm so excited to announce that my next YA duology, a romantasy called WICKED ENDEAVORS, is coming in Summer 2026!

If So Let Them Burn was about the power of love, then Wicked Endeavors is about the poisonous yet motivating power of hate. Black female rage abounds in this one 😈

Cover of CLUB CONTANGO by Boey, art by Nickolej Villiger. Characters left to right: Jaz, Jerry, Connie, and Chance. Southeast Asians in an industrial-looking space, with a green projection screen in the background.

CLUB CONTANGO, my retro-future cyberpunk mystery with queer MCs, publishes 3rd Dec and I wish I could do more than just post about it, but here I go. It's a mystery, it's fun. (TW depression) It's also about depression, being left behind in your own life, and learning to love yourself again.
