I used to feel very embarressed going into the 'kids' section of the libary to get a book.
I must agree with Alia about Harry Potter making adults reading 'childrens' books socially exceptable.

I have lost count of the number of men and women I have seen reading a Rowling book on the trains.

Now I dont bat an eyelid as nobody else does, I have had lots of good chats about books with adults in the YA section of my Ottakers.
