I\u2019m very excited to be sharing some of my favourite Middle Grade reads from the first half (ish) of 2024. This year has actually been quite a quiet year for me on the Middle Grade reads, I haven\u2019t been reaching for them quite as much as I normally do. However I have definitely found some new favourites!<\/p>\n

Paws by Kate Foster<\/p>\n

I discovered this novel due to strong recommendations from a colleague at work! I would trust her word for everything now, this book is incredible. A lovely sweet story of a boy and his dog, featuring friendship and excellent autism representation! <\/p>\n

Buy from Waterstones <\/a>or Bookshop.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Starminster by Megan Hopkins<\/p>\n

I\u2019m normally very sceptical of any middle grade book involving a magic boarding school (because you know why!) but this one is a unique and very interesting take. Astrid is invited to join a magical flying school above the skyline of London, where those with the ability to grow wings learn how to control it! It\u2019s got friendships and adventure and it\u2019s just a great magical novel!<\/p>\n

\n

I Am Wolf by Alastair Chisholm<\/p>\n

One of my favourite books of the year, and the first of two mentions for Alastair, I Am Wolf is an awesome dystopian middle grade. What\u2019s left of humanity live on giant robot creatures which fight each other for land and resources. It\u2019s a real page-turner!<\/p>\n

Buy from Waterstones <\/a>or Bookshop.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\n

Reek by Alastair Chisholm<\/p>\n

The second Alastair mention on the list, this is his most recent novel, published with dyslexia friendly publisher Barrington Stoke. This is a short and perfectly plotted dystopian novel set in a futuristic Edinburgh where due to pollution the air is no longer fit to breathe. <\/p>\n

Buy from Waterstones <\/a>or Bookshop.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Thank you for reading my Middle Grade Faves 2024 Part 1! I\u2019m excited to discover more favourites for the rest of the year! Let me know your favourite books you\u2019ve read so far!<\/p>\n
