Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly book meme that was created and moderated by Lainey but is now hosted by Sam (not me). If you want to find out more about this group/feature or if you wanna join in on all this fun, you can visit the Goodreads group here!
I just found this group and joined! I’m excited to start getting into these weekly book memes again!
Since this week is a freebie, I’m going to do… Top 5 Hidden Gems in YA:
1. Splintered series by A.G. Howard
This series doesn’t get much love. It really should. It’s an Alice in Wonderland retelling. It’s a bit out there but so worth it. The author has an incredible way of storytelling.
2. The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton
This is a great book. It’s a hauntingly beautiful story about a family and the hardships of love.
3. Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu
I’m not sure why I’m not seeing this everywhere. It’s a great book about girl power. Especially, in the Time’s Up movement.
4. Princess of Thorns by Stacey Jay
This book surprised me and it was better than I expected. It’s about Aurora, the daughter of Sleeping Beauty.
5. Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier
I really loved this series. It’s about time travel, which is a bit different than the normal fantasy book. It’s not really one that I’ve seen around much. It’s a shame because I rather enjoy it.
Any hidden gems that you love? Doesn’t have to be YA! I’d love to know.
Splintered and Ruby Red are soooo underrated, they deserve so much love! I’ve heard complaints of how underrated Princess of Thorns too, it’s been on my tbr for so long but I just can’t seem to find the time to read it….

Yes!!! I know! I love them so much and wonder why others don’t! Maybe I’ll start featuring them on my Instagram more. It’s hard, so many good books and not enough time!
