159. Mm. Funny, because a few months ago, I was getting tired of pulling crap after crap off the big-boy shelves, and I toddled back to the YA section (I'm 23. Way to grow up, me) and found the Foundling Trilogy by D.M. Cornish, and felt like it was the most fun I had reading in almost a year. There's lots of good YA out there, and sometimes it's less tedious to wade through than the adult fiction section. I don't know, sometimes, when something's written for kids, there' something about it that's so refreshing, and it comes off better than things written for adults (like...I don't know, Avatar and Lost. Both good, but I know which I enjoy more).

Maybe it's more that YA that's aimed specifically at teenage girls instead of trying to just be a good story overall is sucky.
