This research has as objective to characterize the reading practices of female teenagers, students from public and private schools in Rio Grande, with the main focus characterize this readership and to observe possible trends in this reading group. Thus, this study analyzed 221 questionnaires completed by young women aged between 14 and 19 years, high school students from public and private schools in Rio Grande-RS in the years 2008 and 2009.
