I'm curious, though, why a graphic memoir (and thus non-fiction) was placed in the young adult category when it is not actually necessarily geared for young adults, but is simply in graphic form. Similarly weird things have occurred before, with nonfiction geared towards younger people remaining locked in that generally less prestigious category. I have to wonder how the genres/categories are determined. Hm...
