Top 10 Books of 2021

We’re back with one of our last episodes of Shelf-Involved (for now).

Teen Chefs

This week we’re talking about teen chefs, a title that was meant to never see the light of day, but here we are. Teens who cook, teens who are good at cooking—we don’t know. But we love these books, for reasons both delicious and personal.

Cancel Culture

We’re back to talk about your favorite hot topic: cancel culture! Does it exist? Is it bad? Does it happen to teens? Let’s get into it.

Book Club: Everything Sad Is Untrue

This week we're talking about the first book in our Season 5 Book Club: Everything Sad Is Untrue by Daniel Nayeri. This incredible memoir, that reads more like an epic, is unbelievable, and we think everyone should read it. 

Climate Fiction

This week we’re talking about climate change in YA, otherwise known as climate fiction—Cli-Fi, if you will. It’s a cool fun topic! Get excited. But seriously, we actually really enjoy the thoughtful ways these books deal with a reality that’s pretty hard to not think about it.
