I am pretty sure things like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and Skulduggery Pleasant don't qualify as teen novels. We were reading the first Harry Potter book when I was in third grade - some of my younger friends read the early Percy Jackson books while they were in grade school.

I fear the modern media mentality is skewing what is and isn't something that can be considered a book for children these days.
