Struggling how though?

If they were struggling with the vocabulary, then that might be roastable.

But if they meant, e.g., struggling with the themes, that might be understandable. YA books sometimes tackle difficult subjects or are subtle, layered, etc.

Why roast someone trying to improve? We haven't all had the same opportunities in life.

Why don't you ask @Univ3rse@lemmynsfw.com, who I was responding to?

It was the general reading/vocabulary.

I don't think it matters in this context. Person is trying to get into reading, nothing roastable about that.
