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!

Thank you for nine new books on my tbr. I have read Carrier of the Mark but not the rest. Angela’s Ashes is one book that sticks out in my memory and more recently Asking For It is very good. My review: http://crushingcinders.com/asking-for-it-by-louise-oneill
I will have to check those out! Thanks for the recs. 🙂
Thanks for the list! Bookmarking this page so I can go back and add these to my TBR, and keep them in mind for later!
I hope that there is something you enjoy on the list! 🙂
I’ve known Carrier Of the Mark but I’m not aware of the other books in the list. Thanks for sharing this! 🙂
Most of these titles are new to me as well and I am most intrigued by Carrier of the Mark. 🙂
I really need to read The Radiant Road… I have heard it is fantastic! And since I am Irish, well I should read it just because of that!
I hope that you had a wonderful St. Patrick’s day! I haven’t read Radiant Road either and it has been one that I have been meaning to read forever now.
That’s a gread list!I need to read the Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon soon :))
Thanks for this, I’m always looking for more books set in Ireland!
You should read Spellbook of The Lost and Found, it’s one of my favorite
Oh and also The Upside of Falling Down and The Wren Hunt! 🙂
Thanks for the recs! I need to update this list, so I will definitely check them out. 🙂
What a fantastic list here, that book When Irish Guys Are Smiling seems like something I would be interested in.
