Book Riot's 20 Must-Read YA Books With Disabled Characters

"Find below 20 outstanding YA books with disabled characters. Although not all of these books are #OwnVoices (in part because unless an author is forthright in sharing something personal about themselves, you can't always verify disability), they offer a solid array of portrayals of living with a disability. Fiction and nonfiction are included, as are as many genres as possible. But because of the short nature of the list and desire to offer as wide an assortment of disability experiences as possible, not everything is represented here. Instead, consider this an introduction to finding some of the best books out there featuring disability in YA books."
