I think it just depends on the book and your knowledge of your students. I
have an 8th grade only shelf for my more mature titles but I have "Trapped"
on my regular circulation shelves. Now, it was bought before I started at
this position, so I can't give my own opinion of the book, but I think some
books get labeled as gr. 9-12 simply because the storyline involves kids
that age.
