YA
- Existence by Abbi Glines (may be distressing for younger readers)
- The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins (may be distressing for younger readers)
- The Unbecoming Of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin (may be distressing for younger readers)
- The Evolution Of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin (says 14+ on the inside cover, take it as you will)

- Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare
- Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead

- Yelena Zaltana novels by Maria V. Snyder (may be distressing for younger readers)
- My Swordhand Is Singing by Marcus Sedgwick (YA but scary)
- Kiss Of Death by Marcus Sedgwick (YA but scary)
- Blood Red Snow White by Marcus Sedgwick (may be distressing for younger readers but worth a read anyway -- think LOTR; scary and difficult to read, maybe, but worth it)
- Kita's Nine Lives series (Once Bitten, Twice Dead, etc) by Kalayna Price (listed as YA currently but very similar to her more adult series -- ie other than the sex scenes -- so treat with caution)
- Skulduggery Pleasant series by Derek Landy (more the 9-11 kind of age range, but the humour transcends all age groups)
- Forgotten by Cat Patrick
- Revived by Cat Patrick
- Airel by Chris White and Aaron Patterson
- Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater (mild language)
- Sanctum by Sarah Fine (scary, some more adult themes, may be distressing and unsuitable for younger readers)
- Ashes by Ilsa J Bick (zombies, but not too scary)
- Shadows by Ilsa J Bick (the zombies are quite a bit more real and gross in this one, and the people are horrific, but by this time you probably have the brains -- unlike me -- to not want to read anything by Ilsa J Bick ever again)
- Heroes by Robert Cormier (lots of big themes that might not be suitable for your youngerer young adults -- paedophilia, rape, war, suicide, murder, etc)
- The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald (apparently high school students in the US read this, so I suppose it's fine to put this in the YA section *shrugs*)
- The Angel Trilogy by LA Weatherly
ADULT
- Chicagoland Vampires series by Chloe Neil
- Weather Wardens series by Rachel Caine
- The Kate Daniels novels (Magic Bites/Slays/etc.) by Ilona Andrews

- Alex Craft novels (Grave Memory, etc,) by Kalayna Price
- The Radleys by Matt Haig (listed in someplaces as YA, but themes are quite adult and may be hard to grasp)
- Angelology by Danielle Trussoni (nothing particularly adult, but the characters are [supposedly] adults)
Hi Charlotte! Yes, this is someone who knows you from school (hint: it's the obnoxious one with the formidable nose). Yep.
ReplyDeleteAnyway yeah - don't panic, I won't tell anyone your url if you'd prefer. Basically, I just want to read your reviews as I am very excited about the fact that you are one of the few people I know who can actually use grammar correctly.
I just skimmed your list of books that you've reviewed, and I saw on there 'The Radleys' by Matt Haig which I have read and thought was brilliant but no one else I know has ever heard of it. So yeah I'll probably read that review later sometime.
I have no idea why I'm telling you this.
So. I will be off then. Hope I haven't freaked you out too much. Bye. :)
Hmm. I don't know how to reply. Hmm. The Radleys is awesome, and I am only 13.4 per cent freaked out, so not too bad.
