Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Is it wrong that I'm kind of tempted to go to Reno? I'm not much of a con-goer, though.

Because books.
Someone on G+ posted a question asking for everyone's favorite children's book, and listed To Kill a Mockingbird. I love that book, but I wouldn't call it a children's book, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is a children's book up to but not including YA? I was probably a pre-teen when I read it, but I don't know what the target age is seen as.

I read it in 8th grade, and I was not ready, personally. But I think it is commonly assigned at that age.

I think that my kids read it in 7th grade so not "children's book" like say, Splat the Cat or Diary of a Wimp Kid but certainly a middle-school book (also,TKAM is probably my most favorite book ever!)

When I hear "children's book" I generally think under twelve. But that might just be me.

Hm, $50 day pass + 6-7 hours of driving for a reading . . . I'll have to think about that.
Eta: if "children's" includes YA, then maybe. The two are distinct in my mind.
