Young Adult
Though the definiton of a “young adult book” is somewhat up for debate, for the purposes of this page we are defining it as books suitable for children ages 12-18 and beyond, especially those told from the perspective of characters the same age. From the most delightfully cheesy and cliche stories to the most creative and original, YA, at its best, embraces everything that we love about books. Revist an old favorite from your youth or discover something new, no matter your age.

Gleanings: Stories from the Arc of a Scythe
The New York Times bestselling Arc of the Scythe series continues with thrilling stories that span the timeline. Storylines continue. Origin stories are revealed. And new Scythes emerge!
There are still countless tales of the Scythedom to tell. Centuries passed between the Thunderhead cradling humanity and Scythe Goddard trying to turn it upside down. For years humans lived in a world without hunger, disease, or death with Scythes as the living instruments of population control.
Neal Shusterman—along with collaborators David Yoon, Jarrod Shusterman, Sofía Lapuente, Michael H. Payne, Michelle Knowlden, and Joelle Shusterman—returns to the world throughout the timeline of the Arc of a Scythe series. Discover secrets and histories of characters you’ve followed for three volumes and meet new heroes, new foes, and some figures in between.
Gleanings shows just how expansive, terrifying, and thrilling the world that began with the Printz Honor–winning Scythe truly is.
