2. Yes, adults read YA (Young Adult) novels.

There are a lot of very good ones out there, many much better than the adult novels in my opinion.

I am sure some men read romance novels. I suspect that the popularity of the various e-readers will only increase the reading of types of literature that people would not want to be seen holding a physical copy of. Such as men and romance novels.
