YA St. Patrick’s Day Books: The Ultimate List

YA St. Patrick's Day Books: The Ultimate List

YA St. Patrick’s Day Books list! I have put together this St. Patrick’s Day book list to celebrate all things Irish/green. I am always looking for themes in my reading and there are some themes in YA that are more difficult to find titles for. I have rounded up a few YA St. Patrick’s Day Books that I have discovered on Goodreads and, beyond that, are all set in the gorgeous country of Ireland. Most of these titles are older, as I couldn’t seem to find ones that are more recent. If you have any suggestions, let me know in the comments! Have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
