Recommend some good science fiction fantasy YA books.

Well, 'The Giver' by Lois Lowry is a really good YA science fiction. It presents a seemingly perfect but actually very controlled society. Then there's 'Ready Player One' by Ernest Cline.

There are quite a few. 'Red Rising' by Pierce Brown is an amazing YA sci - fi. It's about a society stratified by color, and the main character's journey to rise up against the system. 'Uglies' by Scott Westerfeld is also cool. It's set in a world where everyone gets plastic surgery at a certain age to become 'pretty'. And 'Across the Universe' by Beth Revis, which is a story about a girl who wakes up on a spaceship traveling to a new planet.

Sure. 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins is a great science fiction ya book. It's set in a post - apocalyptic world where teens are forced to fight to the death in an annual event.

Well, 'Ender's Game' is an excellent fiction science ya book. It tells the story of a young boy, Ender, who is trained to fight in a future war against an alien race. It's really thought - provoking.

Some excellent non - dystopian science fiction fantasy YA books are 'The Golden Compass' by Philip Pullman. It has a richly imagined world with daemons and polar exploration. 'The Giver' by Lois Lowry, while it has some thought - provoking elements, is not dystopian in the traditional sense. It has a unique world - building and a story about a boy who discovers the true nature of his society. Also, 'The Princess Bride' by William Goldman is a beloved book that combines fantasy, adventure, and a touch of romance.

One great example is 'Cemetery Boys' by Aiden Thomas. It combines elements of YA, queer themes, and a touch of the supernatural which is often found in science fiction - like elements. Another is 'The Stars and the Blackness Between Them' by Junauda Petrus, which deals with queer love and has a sort of otherworldly, space - like feel to it. And 'They Both Die at the End' by Adam Silvera also has some queer representation and plays with ideas of fate and the future which are common in science fiction.

A well - known YA fantasy book is 'Harry Potter' series by J.K. Rowling. It follows the adventures of a young wizard named Harry Potter and his friends at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. 'City of Bones' from 'The Mortal Instruments' series by Cassandra Clare is also a great choice. It has a mix of shadowhunters, vampires, and werewolves in a modern - day New York setting. Then there's 'Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children' by Ransom Riggs. The book uses strange and old - fashioned photographs to enhance its spooky and fantastical story.
