BookLists ~ Introduction and Rules

[Nicola]

Everyone loves to read here at the New Adult Book Club. We want to help make it easier to look for that book! We would also love your help in doing so. If you know of a book that you think should be included in one of the booklists or one that covers multiple categories please just let us know in the relevant post below. Please post the book title, author and if you can bookcover. If the book is not stated or known as a New Adult Book please let us know why you consider it to be New Adult. Once your book has been added to the main post your comment will be deleted to keep the comment section short and easier to locate new comments. We have broken both Contemporary and Non - Contemporary into various Sub-Categories. These are:
CONTEMPORARY

1)Romance
2)Sports
3)Bad Boy, Bad Girl, Tattoo, Biker
4)Erotic, Virgin
5)Tearjerker
6)Abuse, Rape, Taboo, Depression, Self Harm and other dark themes

If you have books that don't fit into the above categories let me know so we can add more categories.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Balance Execution
Off Balance Series by Lucia Franco
Could be added to Sports Category, School/Bullying Category, Abuse/Taboo/Forbidden/Dark Category.

Even though MC is young, the subject matter is much too dark for YA. The series will continue through at least 5 books.

Is there a way to up date the booklist with all the new books out there?

So, I am confused on how to get started in this book club. Is there some step by step instructions I am missing? Do I just select a book and jump in or what?

I am in the same spot as Wendy...I'm confused on how to start in this club.
