Hmm…a YA book that will make you cry and cry? SIGN. ME. UP.<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m a huge fan of\u00a0tearing up with a good YA read, especially those that take me back to my extreme emotions of my teenage years. So when Soho Teen came to us looking to target this emotional teen read\u00a0from Silvera, I was excited to meet with the team to plan an awesome campaign.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"HISTORY<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

History is All You Left Me <\/em>is Adam Silvera’s second YA novel, following his popular 2015 debut More Happy Than Not<\/em>.\u00a0 The novel follows\u00a0Griffin, who is mourning the sudden death of his first love and ex-boyfriend, Theo. Even though they both moved on from each other,\u00a0he always thought they might eventually come back to each other. And the only person who\u00a0 understands the grief\u00a0he is going through? Theo\u2019s new boyfriend, Jackson. As the two being to open up to each other, Griffin also begins losing himself in his obsessive compulsions and destructive choices, and the secrets he\u2019s been keeping.\u00a0If he is ever to rebuild his future, he must first confront his history, every last heartbreaking piece in the puzzle of his life. Becky Albertalli, author of Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda<\/em>, calls it\u00a0\u201cSweetly devastating, passionately honest, and breathtakingly human.\u201d E! Weekly says, “Silvera captures the agony of first love in an inclusive, bracingly emotional context.” In other words, grab your tissues. It’s going to be an emotional rollercoaster ride.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been reaching contemporary YA fans for a while now, so we immediately knew the main traits we wanted to target, including YA readers, fans of coming-of-age books, and those with a strong interest in teen romance television and movies. On top of this, we added a strong interest in LGBT movies, books and television. And with the recent release and rave reviews of Love, Simon<\/i> and Call Me By Your Nam<\/i>e, they were the perfect add on to our parallel genre targeting, along with other YA favorites like The Perks of Being a Wallflower<\/em> by Stephen Chbosky and Every Day<\/em> by David Levithan. We also loved that Soho Press included a portrait of Adam Silvera in the native creative, which added a really personal touch for readers!<\/p>\n
