Top Five Reasons Adults Should Read YA Fiction

May 17, 2017

Epic Reason 1: Young Adult books are the best-selling genre of books currently.

In today’s day and age, the most popular genre of books is young adult fiction. That makes it not only a wide-ranging category with various kinds of protagonists, but it also lends itself to telling important diverse stories. It also means that there’s something for everyone’s unique tastes and preferences.

Epic Reason 2: Young Adult books have become a cultural phenomenon.

With books like the Hunger Games, Harry Potter, and Divergent, our entire culture is influenced by young adult literature. The largest young adult books become our biggest blockbusters and even our theme parks. Reading young adult books in a world like ours is the only way to stay current.

Epic Reason 3: It will get you in touch with your inner young adult.

If you’ve ever missed your high school days or want to remember the best parts of being young it’s never a bad idea to turn to novels with younger protagonists with younger perspectives. This is also a great way to understand what issues are currently important to America’s young people and, therefore, its future.

Epic Reason 4: It’s fast paced literature.

Young adult books are written specifically for teens and, therefore, they are written with their attention spans in mind. This creates a style that is fast paced and jumps from revelation to revelation at breakneck speed. If you want a book that’ll keep you hooked and hanging on every word, you’re looking for a young adult book.

Epic Reason 5: They explore exciting concepts.

From magic, to superheroes, to science fiction and more, young adult books aren’t afraid to take the extra step towards the otherworldly. When you’re looking for something outside of the reality you’re familiar with, you can always turn to the dependable high concepts of young adult novels.
