With the exception of a few YA books I’ve come across, I’ve always thought of them as the same reading level of MG, but without any restrictions on mature topics. Do any of you read a lot of YA? What do you think?

Does it need magic at all? What really defines fantasy as a genre? I would consider the False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen fantasy, but there is no magic of any kind. Not that fantasy needs magic to be fantasy, but some would insist otherwise… Just some questions I’ve been thinking about lately!
