If this gets removed, I understand because it's an odd question
This is for the boundlings who used to read strictly YA but I was wondering , what age did you start reading more NA ( new adult ) books ? If you remember what your first NA book was, by who?
Mine was Icebreaker by Hannah Grace , don't judge please , then I moved onto The Twisted Series by Ana Huang, then Emily Rath Jacksonville Rays
As a Canadian, I am more drawn towards hockey, and yes, I know a lot of people don't like these 3 series, but they hold value to me even if they seem cringe
If you don't read NA books , what are your favorite YA books ?

Do you think it would be easy(ier) trying to understand sexual attraction and the differences of certain things if you were allo?

I thought it would be funny for everyone to play this little game that came to my mind, but with a PB and reading theme.
Edited to add one more. 🙃 The one I'm most curious to see your answers is the last one. HAVE FUN! Hope you enjoy. 😄

Quarantine: Stories

Brought to you by my misophonia and the landscapers outside of my complex weedwhacking and such (they're just doing their job, not their fault!). I have a hard time with noise interference and intense noise like this keeps me from focusing on anything. I can't close the window because it's too hot, and where I am there is no AC. I'm thinking some noise canceling headphones and background music would be a good remedy for my current situation.
Another big one for me is anxiety and residual stress from work. A lot of times I can't focus on reading because my brain is too worried about work crap or whatever is weighing on me. Sometimes a ten minute meditation helps, other times my brain goes right back into overdrive after meditating.
The worst, though, is depression. I want to read but I'm spiraling and I feel like I don't deserve the joy that reading brings me for who knows what reason. Sometimes I can stop the self shaming, but others it's a real struggle.
Can anyone relate? Or is there any advice you can offer to those of us having difficulties at times?
