I was typing up a direct reply to you when I saw the email about your reply pop up.

It isn't just books with cartoon illustrations. Think "Twilight" (ugh) and "Hunger Games", too. Even books like "The Fault in our Stars". I think they're mostly written for people 15 - 20, maybe. Though others certainly enjoy them.


Good lord. I put the first Harry Potter book down years ago as it was clearly a children's book I really should get to reading those I guess!

Angsty-teen books though!



Seriously. They are good books. I hate this division into YA and non YA. It's an enchanting story at any age.

That didn't really help her define what YA is. *NM* LiterateDog - 10/05/2017 09:57:05 PM 217 Views
I think you should leave it a mystery Aviendha - 10/05/2017 09:58:34 PM 405 Views

I'm inclined to say in this case, your first impressions should be pretty accurate. Legolas - 11/05/2017 08:27:26 PM 420 Views
It's a conundrum Aviendha - 11/05/2017 09:26:02 PM 455 Views

I think it was horse-style sex with a 14-year-old Aviendha - 11/05/2017 10:31:15 PM 424 Views
It's pretty explicit and stays that way, yeah. As is the show. Legolas - 11/05/2017 11:01:50 PM 366 Views
