Week 7: Assignment 2

I read  YA Comes of Age and Who's Buying Teen Books? Lots and Lots of Adults.  I was a little surprised with the findings from the Bowker study, that over half of the customers who purchase young adult books are over 18.  It was also interesting to learn that the publication of The Hunger Games was a major factor in bringing an older audience into the realm of young adult books.  Personally, young adult literature has always been my overall favorite to read.
