+1. My own uncharitable assumption is that they don't have the reading skills to cope with complex language and/or narratives.

Non-YA doesn't guarantee complexity. My opinion is that there isn't a marked difference between YA and the fluffy beach-read or consumable thriller types of books aimed at adult readers. I think a lot of the appeal is subject matter. It's the same reason people read a lot of fanfic, these stories are relationships-focused.

I agree. I've read a lot of adult fantasy books (at the beach, ironically enough) and for the most part I would consider them indistinguishable from the average YA novel in terms of writing style and complexity. They might be longer in terms of page numbers, but I definitely wouldn't call them any more sophisticated where the actual writing was concerned.

Yeah, like are we out here arguing that if someone graduates from YA books to, say, the ACOTAR series, they're opening themselves up to untold levels of complexity? Not all adult fiction is literary fiction.

Exactly. There is plenty of adult fiction that is mindless fluff.

That is unpleasantly judgey of you.

But accurate.
