Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish with a different theme every week.
Here are the top ten Young Adult and Middle Grade debut novels that I’m looking forward too. They are mostly fantasy since that’s what I like to read.
- Alienated (Alienated #1) by Melissa Landers – Could be summed up as “When Aliens come to my high school.” This one looks like it could be cool.
- The Ninja Librarians by Jennifer Swann Downey – I will read any book with a title as awesome as that.
- Stolen Songbird (The Malediction Trilogy #1) by Danielle L. Jensen – I can’t say no to a high fantasy like this will trolls and curses.
- The Copper Hand by Julia Gibson – If I had to pick a number one book I’m looking forward to, this would be it. I have a soft spot for Native American culture.
- Midnight Thief (Midnight Thief #1) by Livia Blackburne – Another high fantasy that looks awesome. This one has knights.
- Sing Sweet Nightingale (The Dream War Saga #1) by Erica Cameron – Besides making that awful song that the evil step-sisters sing on Cinderella get stuck in my head from that title, it looks like a cool paranormal book about living in your dreams. (Is it stuck in your head now too? Siiiing sweeeeeeet nightingale. Ahhh ahhhhh ahhhh ahhh ARGGHHHHH)
- Gilded by Christina L. Farley – the plot seems a little cliche, but I really like the Korean fantasy and culture that is in this story. I think it could be really good.
- The Islands at the End of the World by Austin Aslan – This is a sci-fi, post-apocalyptic/dystopian story set in Hawaii. Yep. Can’t get more awesome than that.
- A Mad, Wicked Folly by Sharon Biggs Waller – This one might be over hyped because it’s being compared to Downton Abbey, but I’m still interested in reading it because Downton Abbey.
- Dreamwood by Heather Mackey – This looks like a fun middle grade fantasy adventure in a Pacific Northwestern forest.
What books were on your top ten list this week? Leave a link and I’ll come look!
My name is Jessica. I love to read Young Adult and classic literature. I’ve been a book blogger for six years and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet. I’m a very curious reader. Writing about all the questions and thoughts I had while reading a book is the best hobby ever.
I haven’t heard of some of these but they look interesting. Hopefully you will get to read them this year! I know my TBR list is still growing everyday lol
Great great list! I am in love with the cover for Alienated!! Looks so good.

Ninja Librarians is an AMAZING title!
Midnight Thief and Dreamwood look great! A few of the other ones are new to me. Great list!
Stolen Songbird was on my list too. Alienated…can’t wait for that one. And I hadn’t heard of Midnight Thief or The Islands at the End of the World, I’ll have to check those out. Great list!
This is the first I’ve heard of Stolen Songbird, but oh my gosh it looks amazing. I just added it to my TBR list on Goodreads.
Also – heck yeah Ninja Librarians!!!
Yes, that awful song is definitely stuck in my head now. haha!!
I’m looking forward to some of these too! Stolen Songbird & Alienated have been on my to read for a little while, and now I’ve added some more…like Dreamwood…I grew up in the PNW so that is cool to see a book based there :)
