Billy's Answer:

Yep! The YA market has changed quite a bit since my childhood. I can't help but glance at the YA section at Walmart because it takes up 50% of the area, and the irony is these books are always there. I never see anyone looking at them, let alone putting them in their shopping carts. Most of them are romantic fantasies, or at least the ones I had glanced at were. No, I don't feel out of touch. Those books don't appeal to me; therefore, I will never read them.
