NA is my new fav genre but I think I'm left behind in this genre since I read many of it based on your recommendation :D
is definitely one of books that I can't forget. In fact, it's like my personal book. I also loved
.
is definitely a must read in this section, I just think you shouldn't read it until the sequel comes out because otherwise the ending will kill you :<
Definitely have to say Beautiful Disaster and The Breathing Series, can't pick which is my favourite though!

Well, well, well looky here. I have to agree with Sylvia, if there is a book that is going to stay with me I am going to say it is
because it has been with me now going on the 5th day and I feel like I read it yesterday.
A very close second is
which I hate/love. Love Daemon and hate the cliffhanger.

Well Elizabeth, Sylvia could probably elaborate more on this. *she knows EVERYTHING!* But I am pretty sure NA is New Adult and that is where the characters are older than in the YA.

NA stands for New Adult and basically is the genre that covers the college age but we think 18 - 26 is more like it ... though most of us who are reading all these books are much older ahem *looks around to see if anyone has noticed my age* LOL but NA will be a lot more edgier, riskier and sexier than YA books e.g. if there is a sex scene in YA it usually reads like a fade away but if it's in NA it's detailed more

I love "Losing it" (Cora Carmack)...is the kind of book that I read, and read, and read and never get tired of it
It is great to see this category (NA) taking off.I am the author of a series that has grown with the protagonists. In doing so the way the story is told has matured from YA to NA. At book launches (when speaking with readers) I have often worried when I sign a book for a young teen reader. I generally ask what other books they have read to gauge their maturity level. Many times I have spoken to both mum and daughter and am happy when I hear that the mum has been hooked on the series first and has approvingly passed it on to their teen. I have found it easier to just not class my series as YA but I love this idea of NA. At least then when the story develops there will be no unwanted surprises when they go from book to book and the sex scenes heat up.
I have enjoyed looking through all these posts and seeing what other books are being classed as NA.
For those NA Fantasy Romance eBook readers - The first book in my series is currently reduced in price and is also listed with Amazon Prime for FREE until Sunday. Follow links below.

[bookcover:Fallen Crest Hi..."Okay. Any good ones? :)
The only one I've read out of your selection is
and I really enjoyed it. I'm not sure whether you have the edited version or not, but the version I read was in desperate need of editing; not sure if that bothers you or not. But overall the story was pretty great!
Cool. I don't mind the editing as much as some others do, but it can get annoying, so thanks :)Rule 2 vote (s)
The Vincent Boys 1 vote
Forever Mine -1 vote

New Adult Paranormal RomanceCAN TRUE LOVE CONQUER BAD BLOOD?
Forbidden love, yearning desire, and seduction in this breath-taking new adult vampire romance. Born from an ancient voodoo priestess clan, Alexandra Leveau falls in love with sexy vampire Vadim Blerinc. But these two are a dangerous match, and making love could literally kill them.
WHY IT'S NEW ADULT:
Heroine is 22 and just graduated from college, work is scarce, returns to her hometown to find her uncle in trouble, stays to help him, falls in love, but... it's literally bad blood. Includes a few 17+ scenes.
Hi All,I would love to get some reviews/feedback on my new NA novel entitled FRESHMAN FORTY so if any of you are up for reading about a secret pregnancy on a college campus, please hop over to Amazon.com and take a look. Here's the summary:
When eighteen-year-old Laurel Harris discovers she’s pregnant four weeks into the start of her freshman year at prestigious Colman College, she has all intentions of telling her father. But being away at school makes it too easy to hide. And while she can’t explain to her friends, or to herself even, the reasons why she doesn’t want the baby’s father to find out about the pregnancy, the rest of her world begins to unravel.
Freshman year is hard enough. Most girls get through by forming close friendships, finding new boys and a phone call from mom or dad on Sunday. Laurel has to navigate all of it while hiding an unplanned pregnancy from a summer fling...
An imperfect heroine plagued by bad choices and haunted by the memory of her deceased mother and grandparents, readers are sure to identify with Laurel as she navigates teen pregnancy, in secret, in a remote college setting.
Thanks for any and all reviews. I really look forward to hearing what people think!
