 Introducing an Author: Adrienne Young

She currently does not have a running website that I can find.  If you can, please comment down below! 


Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult, Fiction, Historical Fiction, and Historical fantasy fiction


The first book I picked up by Adrienne Young I believe was recommended to me through tiktok, before booktok was a thing.  This was I believe in 2020 when I first picked up her debut novel, Sky in the Deep.  I had been wanting a historical fiction book and this one about Vikings was one I couldn’t pass up.  This was one of the first books that made me cry while reading since I had read My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.  It was magical and everything I could have asked for in a book.  A perfect debut for a new author and had me hooked on her writing from the first chapter. 


What truly made me love her was the character building.  I felt truly immersed in her world and the time period that she was writing.  I felt for each and truly there were no bad guys, only bad circumstances throughout.  She wrote a piece of fiction that I honestly could read over and over again without any qualms of getting bored.  


Her newest work A Sea of Unspoken Things a Magical Realism/Mystery/Romance just came out in January of this year.  At the making of this post, I am unsure when her next book will be released and what she is working on.  


If you enjoy historical fiction with some fantasy intertwined along with slow burn romances you would love love.  I have read her Viking series and the first Fable book, myself personally.  I have a long TBR list, but her books are always a welcomed escape and a world building of immersive altitudes.
