    If it's a shitty book, or called twilight, is young adult. If it's not based on something stupid, is an adult book

    Re: Opinion Pole

    Well! Usually young adult books are about YOUNG ADULTS. Pretty straight forward, i think.

    Re: Opinion Pole

    This is why my dad hates being an English teacher (and especially being a marker for high school exams (where English is a compulsory subject)). He has to read terrible 'young adult' books in order to make sure the students didn't just see the film or read half the book or whatever.

    I remember when he was reading the Twilight books. Mum had to like make him breakfast every day, just to get him through that dark, dark period of his life.

    That's strange, there's no bar in sight.


    Generally if a pre-teenage girl is willing to pay money to see the film version of it, it's probably a young adult film. That doesn't mean it's a bad book, sometimes.
