Adjective

coming-of-age (not comparable)

1. Of or pertaining to a person's journey from childhood or adolescence to adulthood.

     While Collins does include a love triangle, a coming-of-age story, and other YA-friendly elements in the mix, they serve as a Trojan horse to smuggle readers into a hopeless world where love becomes a stratagem and growing up is a matter of basic survival.
