Meet the incredible authors shortlisted for 2025’s YA Book Prize. The award is organised by The Bookseller, and previous winners include Lex Croucher for Gwen and Art Are Not in Love, Danielle Jawando for When Our Worlds Collided, and Alice Oseman for Loveless. As always, this year's winners will be decided by a panel of experts and teenage judges. Come along to hear from some of the best voices in YA today including Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé, Adiba Jaigirdar, and O.R. Sorrel. (Note: this event takes place twice, with different shortlisted authors appearing each time.)
