I’d also recommend The Dark Tower, it’s a great fantasy series without being overly high fantasy

This is great but the schools need to look at their curriculum too as the books they are given to read are so outdated. Both my sons for gcse have Macbeth and Animal Farm, two very depressing books which I did for my gcse 40years ago 😱 (I am an avid reader and have always encouraged my boys to read) Books are amazing

Love your content. I’m a school librarian and really appreciate your recommendations. Not enough Booktokkers targeting the male YA market.

A lot of teen boys seem to be afraid of reading books with a fmc. The hunger games was my favourite series as a teen but when I recommend it to boys they refused to read it. This isn't the same the other way around, Harry Potter was read by my girls than boys. I think theres an underlying misogyny that reading is feminine and lots of teen boys are socialised to see anything feminine as less than

As a teenager I fell out of love with reading books and preferred videogames. Out of all the books my dad tried to force on me as a teenager, the only two I genuinely appreciated and loved were Sophie's World and The Solitaire Mystery (both by the same author). The Hobbit bored me and Harry Potter seemed nothing special.

I’m 14 and I’ve always read RELIGIOUSLY but for nearly all of the last 2 years it’s pretty much only been manga and some Tolkien. Then I found the way of kings and I can’t stop reading the coamere! Genuinely tysm for your videos, they really inspire me

I did a school event for World book day - going to each classroom and creating our own stories with the children. They had amazing imaginations

Great suggestions! I’m a (male) librarian in a secondary school, one of my go to suggestions is The Blue Book of Nebo. Short, powerful and a story that resonates long after the cover is closed. Verse novels like Crossing the Line are fantastic too - Kwame Alexander’s books are great for sporty, athletic boys.

I have aphantasia so reading to me was always such a chore, people would recommend these great books but just couldnt get into them. I did/do love factual books. Its important to know that people experience things in very different ways to others

Great recommendations, my son loved Ready Player One (extremely techy) at that age but also he loved the YA Sci Fi series The Illuminae Files!

my 16 has lost all interest in reading. He seemed to really enjoy Distopian books but hasn't touched a book in ages and it's really sad. I'm currently reading the Red Rising series and I know it would be right up his street but he just has no interest and I don't know how to get that spark back 😔
