Top Ten Tuesday-YA books that adults will enjoy 2

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.  http://www.thatartsyreadergirl.com/top-ten-tuesday/

I'm doing a second week of my look at YA/NA series that adults might like as again, the topic doesn't really suit me. 

1) Suzy Turner-Raven
A teenager is sent to relatives in Canada where she discovers her shifting abilities and a new sense of family and community. I loved the characters and the mythology but have yet to read the whole trilogy.

2) James Todd Cochrane-Max and the Gatekeeper
Max doesn't want to spend the summer with his grandfather but discovers that his grandfather is a gatekeeeper to another world and can move between them. Max discovers that evil people are out to gain control of the gate. Loved the story and an OAP hero was great!

3) Eoin Colfer-Artemis Fowl
Evil child genius Artemis is in all kinds of trouble when he kidnaps a fairy cop. Great characters and a lot of humour. Am I wrong to like this guy? His sidekick Butler is great and you just have to love Foaly.

4) Suzanne Collins-The Hunger Games
Children from each district are chosen to take part in a brutal fight to the death game televised for the rich and bored. This was one of my favourite ever reads and I still haven't watched all the films yet.

5) Sarah Dalton-My Daylight Monsters
Mary has visions, can communicate with ghosts and can see what is wrong with people. It has led to her being trapped in a medical facility with mentally ill teenagers who are all at risk from a killer. Great prequel, loved the characters and look forward to the series. 

6) JK Rowling-Harry Potter
What can I say? Magic, great world building, danger and a lot of laughs.

7) Ambelin Kwaymullina-The Interrogation of Ashala Wolf
Tribe leader Ashala has been betrayed by a friend and captured by their enemy who wants to destroy her illegal homeless group. This was a clever story with lots of twists and I keep meaning to look for sequels.

8) Mark Walden-HIVE
Otto took revenge on the PM by making him moon at journalists and ending his career. It earned him a one way ticket to a school for evil geniuses but all Otto wants to do is escape. Great characters, fun and action scenes.

9) Dave Ferraro-Dark Genesis 
Alyssa awakes with amnesia in a strange world of magic and monsters and has to rely on new friends on a dangerous quest to find a way home. Lots of action with fantasy and steampunk elements.  

10) AZ Green-Beasthood 
Jaz is kidnapped and awakes in a compund far from home, told that she is a shifter. Trying to adapt to her new reality and pack, she discovers that betrayal and pack wars could be the death of her. Excellent and different shifter novel.

Sorry for the short and not very exciting descriptions-I've had computer issues for two days and this has taken forever to compose. Look up the books on Goodreads or similar!
