[CASL-L] Colleen Hoover

[KRISTINE P. EMOND]

Hi Matthew,

I totally understand the concern.  I was wary of purchasing them but decided to try one or two. I put them in the Adult Fiction section (I have a separate YA section) so they are found there.  My 16 year old daughter loves them and she hates to read; she says they depict reality and she likes that the ending wasn't all sweet but complicated like real life.  I will be buying more, but not all her titles.

Here is a great graphic from Hoover's own website of the reading order and recommended levels of her books.

The graphic below is to help with reading order as well as the recommended age level for each of Colleen’s books. When it comes to which book(s) are appropriate for what age, we do understand each child is different.

Lots of students are asking for Colleen Hoover.


She's been described (online, so take that with a grain of salt) as 50 shades of gray for YA.


Does anyone have her books?  Does anyone NOT have her books for a reason?


Thanks,

Matt
