I’m very curious to know, how many of you are reading the “new adult” books that are currently all the rage?   If you’re not familiar with the term “New Adult”, it’s a new genre about college-aged protagonists (between the ages of 18 to 24-ish).   They are books that have outgrown the “young adult” genre and [...]
