This list does not include comics, and it does not include new paperbacks. They may be first in a series or later entries. Then preorder any book that strikes your fancy.Īll series books are marked with a * and are listed first below each date. Use this list less as definitive this season and more as pretty accurate with some potential changes.
It is far less common now than it was even a couple of seasons ago, but I’m finding it happening still, likely with the combination of printing challenges due to paper sourcing and the long-term effects of COVID-19 (we may be “out” of the pandemic according to the government, but the pandemic is not actually over). As always, this list of new spring 2023 YA books will not be comprehensive, especially as book publication dates are still periodically shifting. That lengthy introduction is to say welcome to the spring 2023 YA book roundup. But the more these books succeed–and they do–the more we’ll see the needle continue pushing forward…if publishers aren’t being intimidated by rampant book bans on titles by BIPOC and queer creators. On par with the fact the US is nearly 40% people of the global majority and books should reflect that? Nah. This trend continues to grow, and in the world of spring 2023 YA books, it’s one that will showcase how YA is becoming more thoughtful and intentional when it comes to creating more diverse, inclusive stories. If you thought we hit “ full names in book titles” in YA prior to this seasonal roundup, you’d be wrong.
