Children of Eden is a dystopian young adult novel released by Joey Graceffa on October 4, 2016.[1][2][3]

The novel was listed, and debuted on, The New York Times' Best Seller List, within the Young Adult Hardcover category on the week of October 23, 2016, according to the Times.[4][5]

Reviews of the book have not been universally positive, with critic Rachel Hyland of Geek Speak Magazine writing, "Graceffa knows a lot about YA dystopian conventions, and they are all present and accounted for here. This is by no means a bad thing - an enjoyable romp through this genre doesn’t necessarily require too much divergence (no pun intended) from the established norms - but it is worth noting that most everything in his Eden has pretty much happened before, in one way or another. Still, it is fun to see just how those ever-trusty elements are put together, and there is a nice twist on the almost essential love triangle that is actually pretty awesome."[6]

On May 31, 2017, Graceffa announced in his YouTube channel the sequel to his young adult novel.[7] The sequel, titled, Elites of Eden,[8] which follows an "Elite" and lilac-haired girl named Yarrow and Lark, respectively, was released October 3, 2017.[9]
