The Young Folks’ Best Books of 2015

Gabrielle Bondi’s Top 10 Books of 2015

Another year where I need to apologize for not reading enough books! However, I have to admit that this is the year where I was introduced to comic books and pretty much devoured a ton of them. Comics are an interesting and underappreciated medium for storytelling, and some of this year’s best new stories were from comics. In addition to that, I have managed to read quite a few books. From the delightful “Hold Me Closer” musical book to the magical “Court of Thorns and Roses” to the rousing and ambitious “Walk On Earth A Stranger,” it was another outstanding year for Young Adult literature.
