A COMPREHENSIVE LIST is a new feature designed to help bloggers and readers alike find books according to a specific theme, feature, or concept!
With so many bloggers participating in memes like Top Ten Tuesday or creating lists of their own and so many readers craving a book based on a specific topic or location, I came up with the idea of attempting a database sort of post called A COMPREHENSIVE LIST.
I love making lists and with so many constant topics to choose from — based on blog post or reading mood — I thought this would be a great way to help out other bloggers or readers when they’re in need of a list based on a specific topic that’s not easily searchable.
Below you’ll see my list of books for the designated post topic. I also invite anyone and everyone to use the form all the way at the bottom to submit their own! There are obviously so many books that I haven’t read that I wouldn’t think to include so we need community support to make these lists as wholly encompassing as possible!
These lists will be for YOUNG ADULT BOOKS although I would like to also include some adult books or middle grade books with YA crossover (like middle grade series that extend up into young adult age range or adult books that feature teenager characters, etc). Before submitting anything to this list, please check the post to make sure it hasn’t already been added! I’m manually updating these lists so any assistance not to add extra work is helpful. All books will be sorted by author and then series.
This post is all about BOARDING SCHOOLS and YA books that take place there. Check out the list below and add your own using the form!

omg you did it! 🙂 you are the best! thanks for all the hard work! and yes i totally appreciate your recs – i discovered the winner’s curse series because of you, and i’m also pushing through sanderson bc of your recs. yay!
Yes! Yay!! After I replied to your comment I was like, you know what… it really DOES need links. It took a little bit but it wasn’t as bad as I expected and it really does complete the post 😀
Yaaaaasss! I love this! I’d like to say I’m a sucker for books that take place at boarding schools, but to be honest, I haven’t really read too many. Maybe I should turn this into a book reading challenge in 2017!
Oooh that would be such a fun challenge!!
first of all, this is AMAZING because i love your book recs. second, can i suggest that you link the books to goodreads and/or amazon to enable my growing TBR? i’m sure i’m not the only one who would appreciate this!
Thank you!! I will try to fill in the links over time but it just takes SUCH a long time to link everything up 🙁 We’ll see what I can do!
This is a great list. I had to check out a few myself! See if I should add anything to the tbr!
Love this idea!! So cool to do this kind of list. Now I know where to look when I want boarding school setting in YA!!
