Edgy YA again!!!
Okay, so next weekend I'm presenting at the KY librarian's conference, and my subject is getting kids to read with edgy YA. I'll be presenting with something similar in November at the SCBWI midsouth Schmooze in Louisville.
If anyone would like to be quoted in my presentation, please tell me either (or both)
your definition of edgy/edgy in YA, an example of YA you think is edgy, and or what you think is appealing about this type of literature to some (particularly reluctant) readers.
Thanks so much! I plan to post the presentation on my blog, as well.
