Young adults: Book club Books & Tea” in Goslar is starting up again!

There is reason to be happy for all literature enthusiasts among young adults in Goslar: The book club “Books & Tea” invites both bookworms and chatterboxes to discuss exciting stories in a cozy setting. As regionalheute.de reports, the next meeting will take place on Wednesday, November 5th, at 5:30 p.m. in the Goslar city library at the Kulturmarktplatz (KUMA). The focus is on the popular “new adult literature”, which is particularly popular in the areas of fantasy and romance.

The book of the evening will be “The Word Weaver – Sound and Illusion” by Elvira Zeissler. It is recommended to read the book in advance. The city library and the online library offer it. Participation is free, but registration is requested. Those who decide at short notice are also very welcome. For registrations and queries, the employees of the Goslar City Library are available on telephone number 05321/704493 and by email at stadtbibliothek@goslar.de.

New Adult – A growing genre

tagesschau.de The genre has high sales figures and enjoys a lot of hype. It is aimed at young adults aged 16 to 30 who are in a transition phase between adolescence and adulthood. The novel “Everything I Feel For You” by Alexandra Zwölfer, who goes by the pseudonym Sarah Saxx, impressively shows how these young protagonists, who are often in their early 20s and early 30s, are confronted with the challenges of growing up.

New event formats around the “New Adult” theme are intended to meet the increasing demand. Book fair spokesman Torsten Casimir emphasizes that the book industry is preparing for these developments. The readers are not only looking for good stories, but also a connection to the authors, who often represent a young fan culture on the Internet. On platforms like #Booktok, the exchange and enthusiasm surrounding “New Adult” literature comes to life.
