Five of the best young adult books of 2025

idk what all the fuss is about but these 5 YA books sound kinda deep πŸ€”. i mean, songlight sounds like a wild ride πŸš€, but also kinda scary 😬. and i'm not sure if i'd want to read a graphic novel that's basically just war trauma πŸ€•. on the other hand, we are your children looks super important for queer people everywhere πŸ’–. and what happens online is like, so relatable lol πŸ“±. i think these books are cool because they're trying to tackle some big issues, but also kinda...i don't know, feel good about themselves? 😊
 
🀯 I'm loving how YA lit is tackling some heavy stuff right now... Songlight is like, whoa, it's so easy to get sucked into that world of persecution and prejudice, but at the same time, Moira Buffini's writing is just masterful. The way she weaves together multiple narratives is like a masterclass in storytelling. And then you have We Are Your Children, which is like, heartbreakingly powerful... David Roberts' artwork is insane! It's crazy how much impact one book can have on your perspective, and this one definitely left me feeling seen.

But what I think is really cool about these five books is how they're all tackling different aspects of resilience and survival. Like, No Refuge is all about the struggle to stay alive in a war-torn world, while What Happens Online is like, exploring the complexities of online relationships and self-esteem... it's like, these books are speaking to different parts of our lives that we might not even know were struggling.

And can we talk about Feminist History for Every Day of the Year? Like, I've never seen anything like it. Kate Mosse's research is so thorough, and she's got this way of making history feel accessible and relatable... it's like, I felt like I was learning something new every day. These books are just a reminder that there's always more to learn, and that we can find inspiration in the most unexpected places. πŸ“šπŸ’‘
 
πŸ“šπŸ’‘ 2025 has been all about pushing boundaries with YA lit 🌟. Songlight is like a punch to the gut - it's uncomfortable but necessary πŸ’”. Can't help but admire how Buffini tackles complex themes without shying away from the harsh realities 🀯. We Are Your Children is heartbreaking, but also gives me hope ✨. No Refuge is like a wake-up call for everyone who thinks they're safe 🚨. And What Happens Online? More like what happens when we ignore our online selves 😳.
 
πŸ™ Songlight, We Are Your Children, No Refuge, What Happens Online... all of them dealing with complex issues that actually matter 🀯. But what's really striking is how each one approaches its theme without shying away from the tough stuff βš”οΈ. It's like they're holding up a mirror to our world and saying, "Hey, let's have this conversation" πŸ’‘. These books aren't just entertainment; they're actually trying to do some good 🌟.
