Go is classified as a young adult novel. However, it is completely inappropriate for anyone under 16 or 17. It has too much violence and sex, and little plot that young American teens would relate to. The main character seems to fight nearly every male he meets; his family is dysfunctional, and his father is also violent. There are descriptions of very risky behavior and murder without a compelling plot to explain them.
