im reading both the shining and anxious people🤣

btw whats the difference between new adult and YA? I never understood this, the only difference I see is that new adult ones are usually more graphical😆

I think, NA deals with people aged around 18-25 and obviously handles more mature themes like addiction, psychological issues, sex, high degrees of violence etc. Language also differs in both the category.

Nowadays, I have seen YA dealing with such themes very well too but the way it's presented is a bit different.

This is my understanding.

Yeah, I do get the age factor but I was just wondering whats so different about the way they are written. Like why are those mysteries called YA mystery and not NA mystery? Also, young adult sounds more mature as a term than NEW adult but its the other way around so its confusing😆

I love the quote in your sig!

Oh sure. Nothing epic in scale. Diya and I can give you a list when it's time and you can choose one which sounds the most interesting. 😃


I would rather have both of you decide on a book. Preferably something that’s a standalone. If people are still around we can read fantasy in March next year, hopefully.

I feel the same too. Going back to the book after you know the ending truly feels like a new experience. His anguish and 'shame' breaks your heart even more!


I loved loved the book. It had so much heart to it. I’m glad I read it. Now I have to get to another of your recommendations before the year ends and that’s, You Deserve Each Other.

I didn't vote. I had planned to read a few of the titles listed there but didn't manage to read a single one of them. Did you?
