YA: Thriller Superstars
Sunday, May 7 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PMResidence Inn Berkeley - Ballroom 2
- Mystery, Crime & Thrillers
This gathering of YA authors is nothing less than an event. Debut novelist Nick Brooks’ Promise Boys explores system racism—and murder—at a DC prep school and has been called “breathtakingly complex and intriguing” (Kirkus). Brooks joins bestselling authors Melissa de la Cruz, whose Going Dark uses inventive storytelling techniques in a mystery about a social media influencer who’s gone missing and Marie Lu, whose Stars and Smoke launches a new series combining espionage and pop music. Finally, Angeline Boulley, whose Firekeeper’s Daughter won the Printz and Morris Awards and was a Reese’s Book Club pick, returns with the hotly anticipated companion novel Warrior Girl Unearthed. This star-studded session will be hosted by young moderators from Cinnamongirl, Inc. If you’re already looking ahead to summer (reading), don’t miss this chance to hear from some of YA’s hottest superstars and stock up on their scorching new thrillers. Ages 14+.
