Frank Bruni talks John Green, Fault in Our Stars and the YA push that has made it one of the most successful genres in publishing.
“I can’t say I feel quite that passionately about “The Fault in Our Stars.” But I admire it enormously, more so than most of the adult-targeted novels I’ve read of late. And I found myself eager to share it. I bought a copy for a dear friend’s 12-year-old daughter. Then I sent a copy each to my two brothers, for them to pass on to any of their seven children who might be interested. I sent another copy to my sister, for her four kids.”
