"The last few years have been an utter boon in the world of YA verse novels. With superstar YA authors starting or continuing their legacies in verse, more and more room has been made on shelves for verse novels. Verse novels are musical, and they give readers an opportunity to experience stories in an entirely different manner.
YA verse novels are nothing new. They've been a part of the category of YA for decades, and like other formats and genres, their popularity rises and falls. We are deep into a rise and for that, we're being rewarded with a rich array of voices, stories, and perspectives."
