I am 51 and have been having very heavy periods and peri-menopausal symptoms for the past 8 years. Yay (not!). This is the first time I have had cramping for over a week (when I was due), the usual back pain, irritability, fatigue and no period! Now I'm over the usual mental period stuff but still having cramping.
A coming of age novel usually begins with a young child, who grows up during the course of the events in a novel and learns important lessons about life. There are many examples. These are probably popular because all of us knew the pan of growing up, and dealt with it in different ways. It's a tumultuous time, and full of drama.
Young adult fiction or young adult literature (YA) is fiction published for readers in their youth. The age range for young adult fiction is subjective with some sources claiming it ranges from ages 12-18, while authors and readers of young teen novels often define it as written for those aged 15 to the early 20s.
