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.

I think there are probably a few "chick-lit" type books out there that are about young 20-somethings, but they are probably crap.
