    I find it that fascinating that there are actual people being appalled when hearing a swearword. Reading is even… further. It’s insane, why would that be bad in any way?
    Sex scene is something I find prude but at least can somewhat understand when someone just doesn’t like very sexual stuff or so (but I mean, that is just important for the plot in most cases as well)!

    I remember asking my 8th grade english teacher if she got tired of reading young adult books. She said no, good books are good no matter the age range. Now I’m a couple decades older and 100% agree.

      I’ll never understand the culture of belittling YA fiction, people reject the genre wholesale and it drives me crazy
