Then why, pray, are they a separate category? YA is just the term given to books for older kids who haven't graduated to adult books, yet.

Frankly, I don't see what a discussion of a YA book offers an adult, but I do understand that's just my opinion. I'll even make an exception for The Golden Compass, but for the reason that it's not light. I won't bother to read it again, however.
