Twenty-Something

[author_by_night]

So lady_sarai and I were talking earlier about some of our beloved teens' books, and I had a thought.

Are there any books for us twenty-somethings?

I can read books about sixteen year olds, and about forty year olds - not a problem. But there seems to be a lack of books written about the 18-25 age group. That, or I just haven't found those books.  The books I have found that involved kids my age were mostly beach reads, like Grecian Holiday and Spanish Holiday.

I dunno, I would just like to read about someone in that age gap for once. Someone who is in college, just out of college, or was never in college - either way, trying to find their place.  Or just something unrelated, but with people who are closer to my age and easier to relate to.

Just some thoughts. :) I would love to read a Sisterhood of the Travelng Pants type book or a Ya Ya Sisterhood type book - with characters someone my age can more easily relate to.

A 'one day I'll do it' novel? Sounds like NaNoWriMo material! Wheee, I am so excited because I am going to do it this year. Or, I'll try. :D

Sorry for spamming up your journal, Amy. *guilty look*

Ooh, you're doing NaNo this year? Yay! I'm upping myself to 75,000 words in a month, think I can do it?

And I already know what I'm doing for it...ish. :p
