YA 'Real Life in Action' Genre Study

This month's YA study has us discussing one of those elusive subgenres: contemporary realistic literature with male main characters. Sports books, action adventure, problem novels, and survival fiction are all included in this boy-centered breakout. Join us Wednesday, May 19th at 2:30 pm to discuss the rise of Gossip Girl and its imitators.
