About us
YA čtu publishing house was established in 2021. We were born out of an Instagram project focusing on young adult and new adult books that brought together readers, authors, editors and illustrators. Our gained popularity led us to embark on a very ambitious project – we decided to publish a novel. Our first release, Alespoň prozatím (At Least for Now) by Amelia Salinger, turned out to be a huge success, and our second book, Stačí mávnout křídly (Just flap your wings) by Sara Topinkova, became our first bestselling novel. Since then, we have also published Snad jednou (Maybe One Day), Z pera knihomolů (Written by Readers) and Věk přízraků (The Age of Spirits). As a small and independent publishing house, we only produce a few books a year, with the aim of making each one as perfect as possible. Our dream is to see our books in bookstores all over the world.
YA čtu in Czech is pronounced as "já čtu", which means "I read".
