Abstract
This paper focuses on the issue of realistic teenage novels, as according to the European theory of novels, this type of novels does not exist in teenage literature. Topics, motifs, characters and other categories th
t determine the organization in teenage prose are narrowed down due to the limited receptive capacities of young readers. Some teenage novels have enough typical novel elements to be considered true novels, and they are meant for readers aged 12 or 13 (teenagers).
The Slovene realistic teenage novels occur in four different genres: adventure teenage novel, love teenage novel, social and psychological teenage novel, jeans novel. Novel genres are often intertwined, so one novel that belongs to one genre may have elements of another or other genres, which we consider to be a syncretism of genres.
