Category:Classics

Classics are the YA books that helped start the genre. Many of these books have been around for ages and were written by authors like Judy Blume that have become household names. A lot of times, these fast-paced books feature coming-of-age stories from a first-person point of view. These characters are usually smart, young, independent characters who deal with important issues in the world (violence, drugs, sexuality) and grow because of what they experience.
