An exciting YA Bundle of Three Yoto-Carnegie Medal-nominated books
We were delighted to have scored a hat-trick of nominations for the most prestigious children’s/YA book award in the world, the Yoto-Carnegie Medal.
In the third year that Irish books qualify for the award, the only Irish publisher to ever receive a Carnegie nomination has three books on the list, and are excited to offer a special discount when purchasing all three!
Baby Teeth by Meg Grehan
A unique verse novel of queer love, lust, and vampires.
It starts when Claudia offers her a yellow rose. Immy has been in love before – many times, across many lifetimes. But never as deeply as this.
The forbidden thirst for blood runs deep in Immy. And within her mind clamour the voices of all the others she has been – their desires, and their wrongs.
The Eternal Return of Clara Hart by Louise Finch
A sensational YA time-loop tale about toxic masculinity and gendered violence.
Wake up. Friday. Clara Hart hits my car. Go to class. Anthony rates the girls. House party. Anthony goes upstairs with Clara. Drink. Clara dies. Wake up. Friday again. Clara Hart hits my car.
Why can’t I break this loop
Russian Doll meets Promising Young Woman.
A flicker in the fabric of time gives Spence a second chance. And a third. How many times will he watch the same girl die?
Warning: sexual assault
Things I Know by Helena Close
Hard-hitting YA exploring suicide, mental illness and recover, from the two-time Carnegie-medal-nominated author of The Gone Book.
Saoirse can't wait to leave school – but just before the Leaving Cert her ex-boyfriend dies by suicide. Everyone blames Saoirse, and her rumbling anxieties spiral out of control.
Saoirse finds herself flailing in swirling waters that threaten to suck her into the depths. No-one can save her – not her lovely nan; not the gorgeous boy who tries to love her; and certainly not her cheap-wisdom counsellor.
Can Saoirse, against all odds, rescue the self she used to know?
