Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports belongs first on the young adult shelf, but it becomes more useful when the reader treats category as a doorway rather than a verdict.

A review should make the next choice easier, and Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports does that by clarifying a particular route through young adult.
What Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports is doing
