Where Have All The Young Men Gone?
This morning on Twitter, Cindy Pon directed me to a very interesting discussion at Enchanted Inkpot about “boy books” and “girl books” in YA and why there seems to be a discrepancy between boy-oriented fiction and girl-oriented fiction.
The dearth of boy books in YA is an on-going discussion, with question of “Why aren’t there more boy books?” arising again and again.
The thing is, there are a lot of boy-oriented books, but they’re not being bought in the same numbers as girl-oriented ones.
