About time. Vaguely embarrassing for humanity that books for children were so strongly dominating adult reading. https://nathanbransford.com/blog/2023/03/why-are-ya-sales-declining-this-week-in-books

I’m confused how you get that YA books took up market share from adult readers. Seems like a relatively straightforward news that “teens aren’t reading books as much”?

I thing it’s because if you call it adult fiction people think of 50 shades stuff 😂 so anything for youth and adults get categorized as young adult fiction… this is just an assumption lol
