I think YA tends to appeal to more adults now bc, in our youth, we tend to encounter many of the same things.
When you become an adult and go out into the world, our experiences are more diverse (college, military, work, marriage/family, etc).
However, a line should be drawn when YA is too “adult”.

The YA publishing crisis isn’t that we need more mature YA books or a Mature YA label, it’s that we need more YA books published for teens of all ages and less YA books published as YA but also wanting to reach Adult audiences. Adults have plenty of books published for them.
