I'm really looking forward to reading it now.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337469341697895080.post-43574747861769919732013-06-04T16:10:28.540-06:002013-06-04T16:10:28.540-06:00Distinguishing middle grade from YA with books tha...Distinguishing middle grade from YA with books that have fantasy type violence is more complicated for me. Personally, I enjoyed House of Secrets it's just interesting where they end up in the bookstore. I found my copy of The False Prince snuggled in among YA dystopian books but your right sometimes it's hard to tell.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260139292374478327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337469341697895080.post-32658713051074074922013-06-04T15:40:33.251-06:002013-06-04T15:40:33.251-06:00Seemed middle grade to me.

Violence doesn't, either, at least fantasy type violence, but sex certainly does. I always think of MG as grade 4-8, though, and some peoplle think of it as younger, so it is hard to tell!Ms. Yinglinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805324364289597178noreply@blogger.com
