Mary E. Pearson captured our hearts years ago with the Fox trilogy, giving us incredible characters, sizzling romances, and drama drama drama. For the last few years Mary has kept us spellbound with the Remnant Chronicles, an intoxicating series at the intersection of romance and fantasy. Mary's newest book in the Chronicles, DANCE OF THIEVES, is her wildest yet-- a wonderfully complex story that's pretty much a teenage Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones). DANCE OF THIEVES will knock your socks off.

The best part of YA series is discovering a new author before all your friends, especially if that author is new to the scene. Bree Barton's HEART OF THORNS is her first book and the first installment in the Heart of Thorns trilogy. Barton created a vivid world in HEART OF THORNS where only women can have magic, giving them a secret and awesome power to control their own destinies. We're super excited to have Bree visit Interabang at this early stage in her sure-to-be long and accomplished YA career.

What do we want from a great YA book? The feels. Well, guess what? Dallas native Vicky Skinner's new romance HOW TO BREATHE UNDERWATER has more feels than we can bear. When Kate's parents go through a messy split and she goes to a new school, she has to figure out who she is and who she wants to become. Then, she meets a boy who changes everything. HOW TO BREATHE UNDERWATER is about the balance of school, sports, love, and family in an all too familiar way. We hope you can breathe underwater, because this one will get you crying faster than a Nicholas Sparks movie.
