about frenzy

The coolest team at HarperCollins Canada!

Since the early 2010s, Frenzy has cultivated a community of Canadian YA lovers. Dedicated to championing authors and books representing a wide range of backgrounds, communities, and experiences, as our readers have matured, so have we! Today, Frenzy has expanded from a devoted YA channel to include fantasy and romance reads for all ages and of course, our Frenzy Faves—hand-picked favourites from our team! Simply put, if we loved it, we’ll feature it.

Meet Team Frenzy

TeamFrenzy-August2023

Working in publishing, we read a lot of books before they go on sale. This also means that the closer they get to publication, the more excited we are to scream about them to all of you!

Made up of a group of young(ish) publishing professionals, we know that many of our readers are just like us and looking for books that don’t just entertain but represent a wide range of perspectives and experiences that reflect the diversity of our world. We take our responsibility for pushing progress in the publishing industry seriously and are dedicated promoting books that amuse, amplify, uplift, and inspire us.
