I can't see it being a problem. Here's a Goodreads collection of cannibalism books if you need comps. Some appear to be YA.
For research purposes, I would recommend chapters in Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers (non-fiction). Contrary to popular belief, The Sex Lives of Cannibals doesn't contain cannibalism. It is hilarious South Pacific travel writing though.
I recently finished The Sex Lives of Cannibals by J. Maarten Troost. I found it to be an immensely fun read. It's a travelogue that gives great perspectives on the history Western influence on South Pacific nations and the sociology of modern island nations.
Damnit.. it's completely vile, and I'm loathe to admit it, but when it comes to internationally iconic songs [La Macarena]() should be on or near the top of the list.
Seriously, cassette tapes of that piece of shit actually made it to Kiribati in around 2003. For years that song by itself was the entire music scene of that tiny island nation. Most of those people didn't even have a radio, but they could sing along to that song if it was played.
I refuse to link it out of protest.

How about on the sea?
Pirates! by Celia Rees is historical fiction about two girls who run away from a sugar plantation to be privateers.
In the nonfiction department, The Sex Lives of Cannibals and Getting Stoned with Savages by J. Maarten Troost are humorous travelogues about expat beach living in Kiribati, Fiji and Vanuatu.
In lieu of actually going to those places, I found two books which describe Kiribati and Vanuatu from a Western perspective. If you're interested in the area please read The Sex Lives Of Cannibals, and Getting Stoned With Savages. Although I prefer the latter, they're both great books and give an interesting perspective on the region.
J. Maarten Troost's "travel" books:
The Sex Lives of Cannibals
Getting Stoned with Savages
and Lost on Planet China
Chuck Thompson, i.e. To Hellholes and Back and J Maarten Troost, i.e. The Sex Lives of Cannibals. Hilarious stuff, really good for passing time on planes.
Not sure if it qualifies, but [The Sex Lives of Cannibals] (http://www.amazon.com/Sex-Lives-Cannibals-Equatorial-Pacific/dp/0767915305/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1417828194&sr=1-1&keywords=sex+lives+of+cannibals) is great fun.
If you're interested in what Kiribati is like, this, is a great travel novel written by an american who went to live there
