There's 'Shadowshaper' which is about a girl who discovers she can communicate with spirits and has to deal with a mystery involving the supernatural in her community. 'An Ember in the Ashes' has some elements of the supernatural, like the magical trials and the creatures in the world. Also, 'The Near Witch' is a less - talked - about book that has a small - town mystery with a supernatural twist.
I recommend 'The Girl from Everywhere' which has time - traveling elements that are quite supernatural. 'Vicious' by V. E. Schwab is also a bit of a hidden gem. It's about two former friends who have superpowers and a feud between them. 'The Wicked Deep' is a lesser - known book about three sisters who were witches and their connection to a town. It has a really spooky and interesting atmosphere.
A less - known one is 'The Map of True Places' by Brunonia Barry. It has a complex plot that involves a sort of treasure hunt for self - discovery as well as a literal search for something valuable. Another is 'The Book of Lost Things' by John Connolly. It has elements of a boy's journey through a strange land which includes a form of treasure hunt. There are also self - published or small - press books that might have this theme, but they can be harder to discover.
Well, 'Ask the Passengers' is quite popular. It follows Astrid as she sends her love to airplanes flying overhead while she figures out her own lesbian identity. It's a unique and heartwarming story.
Suzanne Collins is well - known for 'The Hunger Games' series which has crime - related elements in a post - apocalyptic setting. Jay Asher is another, with 'Thirteen Reasons Why'. Also, John Green's works like 'The Fault in Our Stars' can be considered in this category to some extent as it deals with tough situations that could be related to crime on a young adult level.
There's also 'The Last Days of World War 3' by an indie author. This book is unique as it focuses on the psychological impact on soldiers and civilians alike during the end stages of a World War 3. It's not as well - known as some of the big - name books but has a very in - depth look at the human psyche in such a situation.
Some good yet lesser - known science fiction books include 'The Stars My Destination' by Alfred Bester. This book is filled with amazing ideas about teleportation and revenge. Then there's 'Anathem' by Neal Stephenson. It's a complex work that delves into different worlds, philosophy, and advanced technology. Also, 'Flowers for Algernon' by Daniel Keyes, which is a thought - provoking story about intelligence enhancement.
One great young adult fiction supernatural book is 'The Mortal Instruments' series by Cassandra Clare. It has a great mix of action, romance, and supernatural elements like vampires, werewolves, and shadowhunters. Another is 'The Hunger Games' which, while not strictly supernatural, has elements of a dystopian world that can seem otherworldly. And 'Twilight' by Stephenie Meyer is also popular, with its vampire and werewolf lore.
