YALC 2026 Attending Authors: Recommendations

I am once again going to be attending YALC this year. If you’re been here for a while you will know that I have attended every single YALC since the very first one. I am so excited to be heading there again, and this year is an exciting one. Due to LFCC Winter having been cancelled, for the first time ever YALC is going to be it’s own standalone event, and I am super excited about it.

There’s been some fantastic authors announced this year, and to my absolute delight some new authors who have not attended before. As someone who has attended every YALC, I will admit that for a few years there wasn’t a lot of authors I was excited about as a lot of them were the same year upon year. So this new fresh lineup is very exciting to me.

Having said that, there are still quite a lot of authors I have read and recommend so here are the books I’ve already read and highly recommend for anyone wondering which authors they should add to their TBR.

Click on any of the covers above to be taken to my reviews of these books. For books with a series (e.g. LA Weatherly’s Angel series, Juno Dawson’s HMRC Series and Katherine Webber’s Twin Crowns Series) I have only included book 1 of the series but I have read the entire series.
