Young Adults Reading Preferences
After interviewing young adults about their reading preferences, I realized that their preferences are really ALL over the place! That shows me that as a librarian it is really important to have all types of books and resources. I did find repeat answers of Nicholas Sparks as a favorite author and some of Sparks's books as their favorite titles. Typically, the boys seemed to be more interested in informational text verses the girls having a heart for novels.

Jordan, really astute observations about needing to be familiar with a range of literature and also the gendered nature of reading preferences! I hope you'll tell us more about it in class.
