Wrong Vocabulary?

So I've been reading a few stories here lately and while i've been drawn in by certain plots, I've been turned off of the stories to the point where i stop reading, by one big problem... vocabulary.
the stories i tend to read are of the teen - college age range, beacause i can relate to those ages, being a college student myself and the thing that turns me off a story pretty fast is when authors have their younger characters talking like middle aged people, it just doesn't fit.
college and high school age peole use a very different set of words and phrases.
maybe it's just me, but stories where the characters don't sound their age are a huge let down for me.
Kate Draffen is a great story that has the characters acting thier age.
i won't give examples of stories that have made me stop reading
