Okay, this is my first post, but I have spent quite a bit of time reading and getting info and encouragement from the other posts, and until now I haven't had any questions that haven't already been asked. (if I did somehow miss this question being answered sorry for duplicating) So, I'm at the end of what I would consider an adult literary fiction novel. But, half the book is about the teenage years of the main character, and my inner editor (I hate that guy) is making me worry that with a lead character (and all his little side kick characters in that half who are also high-schoolers) will it be considered YA simply for that reason? Are there other books out there that deal with teenage characters but are not teenage books? I'm beginning to worry that it would be over the heads of most YA but possibly unrelatable for adults. Help me out here.
