New Adult


PilesOfBooksAJ and Mel’s Recommendations

NA (New Adult) for us is generally considered to be a book featuring College-aged characters.  It’s an age that sees a lot of change as people grow, learn who they are and come into their own, and that always adds a fantastic dynamic to a romance.

This list will give you some great standaloness, and our favourite NA series.

Please note some of the standalones may actually be part of a series (and we have put that detail in for those who wish to explore further), but we are recommending them on the basis that they can be read on their own, and they are books that we have read and loved without the need to read others in the series.
