lady at the store: and are you into fantasy? this is a local author, the book is in the young adult genre--
me: yeah I think at this point I've definitively aged out of that range :)
lady at the store: oh, you look like you're the right age!

me: yeah I get that. a lot actually.
#I am an adult who is young (?) but if we're talking about The Young Adult Genre that's like. eighteen max for the main characters.#I cannot fucking handle that shit anymore unless it's REALLY good or it's a nostalgia read#so it's a situation of either she doesn't know what YA actually means or she does and is really immensely misreading my age#both very possible. I was mistaken for a high school student earlier this year.#but seriously I am no longer at the age where being mistaken for a teen is flattering it's just weird#actually now that I think about it once I got out of my teens I don't think I was ever flattered by being mistaken for a teen#I was only ever flattered by that when I was not yet a teen and I looked older than my age#oh my god I'm like a vampire. stuck looking like I'm 18 forever. someone stake me.#life#books
