The first book in a new Cassandra Clare series is still being snaffled up by YA readers: Lady Midnight is a semi-sequel to her bestselling Mortal Instruments series. Also proving popular is the OzYA hit from Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff, Illuminae. Set on a spaceship in the distant future, this story is fast-paced, multi-layered, and breathlessly exciting.
