Need a New Adult Rec? We got ‘em
May 15, 2013
I’m (Mandi) kind of new to the New Adult (NA) genre. I don’t know why I held out. I honestly think part of it was because there was so much hype and discussion about the genre I was over it before I even tried it. However, there is this place called Twitter where I see [...]
