2024 Middle-Grade Books of the Year

I have read 165 books this year and most of them are middle-grade so choosing my top 12 was always going to be impossible so instead, as its 2024, I’ve decided to choose 24 of my favourite middle-grade books this year. I have posted reviews on my Blog for most of these so, where I have a review, I’ve linked them below the images.

The Whisperwicks

The Others

Spooksmiths Investigate: The Cinderman

The Secret of the Moonshard

Pirates of Darksea

The Great Phoenix of London

Peregrine Quinn and the Cosmic Realm

Maisie vs Antarctica

The Last Boy

The Island at the Edge of Night

I am Rebel

Flame Chasers

Black Gables

Beast Lands: Race to Frostfall Mountain

Bringing Back Kay-Kay

The Haunting of Fortune Farm

Angel of Grasmere

Ember Spark and the Thunder of Dragons

Delta and the Lost City

Birdie

I still have lots of middle-grade books published in 2024 on my bookshelves that I’m aiming to read next year as well as, of course, picking up lots of 2025 releases!

Have you read any of these? What have been your favourite reads this year? What have I missed that I really should read in 2025?

  1. Wow Mary! You must be in the absolute top percentile of reading teachers and the breadth of your reading always astonished me. I have noted quite a number from your 24 choices that I definitely need to seek out and read 😊 I’m trying to use the BorrowBox app to do my catching up, so I’m using your list to make some reservations. Thank you ☺️

    1. Happy New Year Veronica! I can’t imagine ever stopping reading middle-grade books, but I am trying to fit in some more adult ones too. I love the Borrowbox app and I also use Sora which is one we get as a school subscription with our School Library Service. Despite reading lots this year, I still have a huge TBR!
