1. Gillian McDunn (Caterpillar Summer)

2. Amy Rebecca Tan (A Kind of Paradise)

3. Jen DeLuca (Well Met)

4. Hafsah Faizal (We Hunt the Flame)



5. Joanna Hathaway (Dark of the West)

Sophomore Authors

2. Laura Silverman (You Asked for Perfect)

3. Elizabeth Acevedo (With the Fire on High)

So who did you think were the best debut and sophomore authors of 2019?
