Part of it is because we\u2019re entering the time of year for the 2027 <a href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/2026-summer-scares\/\">Summer Scares<\/a> list development, and part of it is because we\u2019re finally at the point where the days are getting a little shorter and the nights are (finally!) cooler. Though it\u2019s not quite fall, the vibes are absolutely there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re picking up more horror lately or are avoiding it entirely, there\u2019s good news for you. This week\u2019s new YA releases offer a little bit of everything for a wide array of readers. There\u2019s some new horror for your TBR, alongside new thrillers, an excellent book about anger and resilience, and not one but two books about boundary-pushing teens attending schools with sinister motives. You\u2019ll find several of these books centering young people who\u2019ve been justice-impacted, too, which is something that has popped up a few times this year\u2013and is a much-welcomed and needed perspective in YA.<\/p><div id=\"dev95-3582434943\" class=\"dev95- dev95-entity-placement\"><center>\r\n<script>\r\n  atOptions = {\r\n    'key' : '4ba6b6513c00e0ba76511f798ae56401',\r\n    'format' : 'iframe',\r\n    'height' : 50,\r\n    'width' : 320,\r\n    'params' : {}\r\n  };\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"https:\/\/www.highrevenueformat.com\/4ba6b6513c00e0ba76511f798ae56401\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n\t<\/center><\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because there are so many new releases this week, the roundup below will go heavier on hardcover descriptions and lighter on paperback descriptions than usual. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Get 15% off annual All Access memberships<\/strong> for a limited time in celebration of Book Riot\u2019s 15th anniversary!

The night he does, Miles heads to a party, eager to prove that he knows how to solve a blood feud in town that\u2019s been running for generations. He has photos proving that it was the county sheriff who caused an \u201caccident\u201d that hurt Miles\u2019s dad and not only killed several people but also helped disrupt the plans to unseat the sheriff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The feud goes back 100 years. His great-great-grandfather incited a miner\u2019s rebellion that led to the police holding a public execution. But Miles\u2019s plans to prove what the sheriff did has now made him the victim of the feud, thanks to the sheriff\u2019s son and friends. They\u2019ve found Miles and beaten him so hard he\u2019s now in the hospital.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He\u2019s not going to give up on his question to prove the sheriff is up to no good, and when Miles accidentally kills one of the boys who hurt him, he discovers how many people in his small town want to join him in taking the authority down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Paperback YA Series Releases This Week:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><a product-id=\"1250372186\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Fcorpse-creek-a-bleak-haven-novel_vincent-ralph%2F57635002%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"Corpse Creek: A Bleak Haven Novel\" data-publisher=\"Wednesday Books\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9781250372185\" data-asin=\"1250372186\" data-author=\"Ralph, Vincent\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">Corpse Creek<\/a><\/em> by Vincent Ralph<\/li>\n<li><em><a product-id=\"125037216X\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Ffear-farm-a-bleak-haven-novel_vincent-ralph%2F57625181%2Fitem%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"Fear Farm: A Bleak Haven Novel\" data-publisher=\"Wednesday Books\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9781250372161\" data-asin=\"125037216X\" data-author=\"Ralph, Vincent\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">Fear Farm<\/a><\/em> by Vincent Ralph<\/li>\n<li><em><a product-id=\"0063421682\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Fa-theory-of-dreaming%2F54255409%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"A Theory of Dreaming: Sequel to A Study in Drowning\" data-publisher=\"HarperCollins\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9780063421684\" data-asin=\"0063421682\" data-author=\"Reid, Ava\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">A Theory of Dreaming<\/a><\/em> by Ava Reid<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>More Paperback YA Releases This Week:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><a product-id=\"0593806603\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0593806603\/ref=as_li_tf_il?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=boorio-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399349&amp;creativeASIN=0593806603\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Amazon\" data-title=\"The House of Quiet\" data-publisher=\"Delacorte Press\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9780593806609\" data-asin=\"0593806603\" data-author=\"White, Kiersten\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">The House of Quiet<\/a><\/em> by Kiersten White<\/li>\n<li><em><a product-id=\"1665963948\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Fjoy-to-the-girls_rachael-lippincott_alyson-derrick%2F58308434%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"Joy to the Girls: A She Gets the Girl Novella\" data-publisher=\"Simon &amp; Schuster Books for Young Readers\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9781665963947\" data-asin=\"1665963948\" data-author=\"Lippincott, Rachael\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">Joy To The Girls<\/a><\/em> by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick<\/li>\n<li><em><a product-id=\"1464279896\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Flook-what-you-did_kaitlin-reilly%2F57465801%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"Look What You Did\" data-publisher=\"Sourcebooks Fire\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9781464279898\" data-asin=\"1464279896\" data-author=\"Reilly, Kaitlin\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">Look What You Did<\/a><\/em> by Kaitlin Reilly<\/li>\n<li><em><a product-id=\"0063338289\" href=\"https:\/\/bookriot.com\/p\/click\/camref:1101lkCeo\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thriftbooks.com%2Fw%2Fonly-light-left-burning_erik-j-brown%2F52140445%2F?partner=thriftbooks\" target=\"_blank\" nofollow=\"nofollow\" title=\"Buy from Thriftbooks\" data-title=\"The Only Light Left Burning\" data-publisher=\"Storytide\" data-releasedate=\"2026-09-15\" data-ean=\"9780063338289\" data-asin=\"0063338289\" data-author=\"Brown, Erik J.\" class=\"rnmg-book\" rel=\"noopener\">The Only Light Left Burning<\/a><\/em> by Erik J.
