http://bethrevis.blogspot.com/2012/11/celebrate-books-win-library-of-signed.htmlWhy do I love YA books? Well, for one, I am a 'young adult'. And being a wonderful teenager, I have not experienced everything out there in the world, nor do I think I know everything. Middle grade books are amusing, but they don't get me. Adult books... I can't yet relate to them. In a good YA book, I feel like I'm the main character, and the story is real...if only...
I mean, I'm pretty mature. For my age. But those YA books, we just click. Yes, I still want a happy ever after. But I don't want to read about an easy journey to it. At this age, we're at the middle of things - the middle of growing up, physically, emotionally, and mentally. We need balanced books that cater to our median needs. o.O (does that make sense?) The content can't be too mature. If you know what I'm talking 'bout ;) (; And no, even though some of us may think it, we are not the smartest, so the books can't be too rocket -sciency.
Even my mom loves YA. She's the smartest person I know, and she makes me read YA books to her. She's in it for the stories, which are always imaginative and engrossing.
Some of my favorites are Vampire Academy, City of Bones, Clockwork Angel, Divergent, Graceling, Across the Universe, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Shadow and Bone, and so many more I would be up until tomorrow typing them. Actually, tomorrow's only 3 minutes away, so I suppose that's doable...
And actually? I think the main reason is I WISH THESE BOOKS WERE MY LIFE! Minus the sadness and deaths and killing and...hardships and...well maybe I'm better off reading about it :)
Why do you love YA?
