Do you read books “meant” for other age groups? Adult books when you were a child; Young-Adult books now that you’re grown; Picture books just for kicks … You know … books not “meant” for you. Or do you pretty much stick to what’s written for people your age?
I read books from all of the above. In the Picture Book genre, I love The Quiltmaker’s Gift and The Quiltmaker’s Journey.
In the Young Adult genre, I love the Harry Potter series, the Charlie Bone series and the Anne of Green Gables series.
In the Adult genre, I love anything by Beverly Lewis, Laura Childs, Joanne Fluke and Mary Mott Davidson.
All of these books can be found in the Sweet Tea & Grits Bookshop.

I have been known to stray into the young adult genre as an adult, but my heart lies in historical fiction and historical nonfiction. Last year I read a textbook on the history of western civilization like it was a novel. I tend to think that what makes what I read “adult” is simply my interest in it. I certainly didn’t want to read anything related to history when I was a young adult.
I agree with adult = interest.
