This New Adult thing is really happening, eh?

I don't know if I can handle another blog category.

From Publishers Lunch:

Shannon Stoker's "new adult" debut THE REGISTRY, set in a United States in which girls are breeders and the prettiest girls go to the highest bidders -- telling the story of the one young woman who refuses to play by those rules, to Amanda Bergeron for William Morrow, in a six-figure deal, in a three-book deal, for publication in 2013, with books two and three to follow in 2014, by Paula Munier in her first deal as an agent, at Talcott Notch Literary Services.

Isn't that basically Wither? ...I guess we'll find out in 2013.
