New Entangled YA Imprints
Entangled Publishing has announced two new YA imprints, Mayhem Books and Mischief Books.
Mayhem Books is meant for teens 16 and older “who aren’t ready for New Adult fiction just yet, but are searching for a similar level of romance and action.” Their first titles, due later this year, will come from Elise Kova, Shannon J. Spann, and Nisha J. Tuli.
Mischief Books is coming in 2026, and is directed at teens 13 years and older, focusing on works meant to “guide, entertain and inspire.”
Publisher and CEO Liz Pelletier explains the reasoning behind the new imprints: “In the last few years, I’ve seen a dramatic shift in the Young Adult market, with YA titles being sold more to adults and leaving teens looking for content that was truly crafted with them in mind — especially for those young readers moving up from Middle Grade fiction. Teens develop at different paces, and their reading choices should reflect that.”
