I play fast and loose with the categories — most books I think suitable for anyone between eight to eighteen gets chucked under YA (which isn’t fair to the genre, but labelling them as “middlegrade fiction” or “ages 11 and up” makes even less sense to me), and most YA books, I’ve found, are suitable for a lot of people, regardless of age. Which causes some ridiculous overlaps because YA is never just YA, is it?
