Borders Weasles Out of Pop!
If you’re working on a YA book, you might want to check with your editor about his or her thoughts on your level of sexual content and language. While Borders won’t give a specific reason, they’re refusing to carry Aury Wallington’s (who has contributed YA advice here) book Pop! (writes Jessa Crispin in The Book Standard.) It’s disappointing that there are some groups trying to water down YA fiction, as said YA’s are the readers most in need of honesty in their writing. Catch a YA reader now with a great book and they’ll be a reader for life. Talking down to them with whitewashed writing is no way to get kids interested in literature.
