One disruptive speculative idea usually reshapes an otherwise recognisable teenage life in Cat Patrick's young adult fiction. Forgotten follows London Lane, a girl whose memory resets each night: she cannot remember the past but can remember events from her future, including a relationship she has not yet lived. Revived centres on Daisy, a teenager who has repeatedly been brought back from death by an experimental drug and must keep changing identities as part of a secret government programme. The Originals follows three identical girls who present themselves publicly as one person because they are clones. Patrick's novels are accessible, fast-moving and relationship-focused, using memory, identity and experimental science to create mysteries rather than dense world-building. For discovery, the useful links are YA science fiction, speculative romance and identity stories, in a similar crossover space to Lauren Oliver or Jessica Brody. Read more Less
