I think it depends a great deal on who's guiding their book selection. If they're getting suggestions from someone who is enthusiastic about YA literature--a parent or a librarian or a friend--I think they're more apt to choose these books. I think there are a lot of teens who don't know these books are out there. My kids, now 19 and 21, will still read YA books if I recommend them.
