What does "young-adult literature" mean? Rebekah Send a noteboard - 08/09/2010 05:08:54 PM
Wikipedia contributors are apparently confused about it too.

Compare the entry on young-adult fiction with the article on young-adult literature.

I've always thought it was more properly in the teenaged bracket, i.e. 13-18.

What do you think?

And do you read YA books? If yes, are you outside the "target" age group?

I've always thought the age labels on children's books were silly, and these are no exception. - 09/09/2010 10:19:02 AM 513 Views

I think it could be how we use the term young adult in the US - 09/09/2010 02:27:38 PM 492 Views
