New Adult Guide

New Adult is a new and growing category, which leaves a lot of room open for interpretation. This is meant to be a guide for readers. Whether you want to figure out what this category entails, you want to start reading NA, or you want to expand on the NA books you've read, hopefully you can find what you need here. This is my attempt to compile all the NA information I've found. If you have anything you've written or know other people have written - books, blogs, articles, etc... - let me know and I'll get it added to this page.
