When I started my YA 101 series a month ago, I put out a request for readers, between the ages of 13 and 20 to take part in a not so scientific poll to find out what they like to read and what is their favorite genre.  The results surprised even me.  Below are the questions I asked and below that are my results.

Out of the following categories, what is your favorite genre to read:

• Adventure (i.e.:  Island of the Blue Dolphin; Harry Potter)
• Contemporary (i.e.:  Sarah Dessen novels; The Fault in our Stars)
• Dystopian (i.e.: Hunger Games; Divergent)
• Fantasy / Sci Fi (i.e.:  Eragon / I am Number Four)
• Paranormal Romance (i.e.: Twilight, Beautiful Chaos)
• Steampunk (i.e.:  Cinder; Leviathan)
• Urban Fantasy (i.e.:  Percy Jackson; City of Bones)

How do you find books to read?
