We are big fans of <em><strong>Tammara Webber\u2019s<\/strong> <\/em>books and we are thrilled to offer her a home at Penguin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Easy<\/em><\/strong> follows two characters on the cusp of adulthood and reflects a growing trend in publishing that media outlets and readers have dubbed \u201cnew adult.\u201d\u00a0 In new adult novels, the characters are often in their late teens or college age and are facing the coming-of-age issues that accompany the move from teen to adult life.<\/p>\n<p>In<em> Easy<\/em>, 19-year-old Jacqueline grapples with both the aftermath of a sexual assault and the excitement of a new love interest.\u00a0 Similar to such bestselling novels as <em>Beautiful Disaster<\/em> by Jamie McGuire and Colleen Hoover\u2019s <em>Slammed<\/em>, <em>Easy<\/em> features an intriguing love story and deals with themes that resonate with both older teens and adults.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had great success this year in identifying, acquiring, and re-releasing several self-published novels,\u201d Leslie Gelbman, President and Publisher of Berkley Books, said.\u00a0 \u201cEveryone at Berkleyhas fallen in love with <em>Easy<\/em>, and we\u2019re excited to expand on Tammara Webber\u2019s impressive work, introducing the novel to new readers and making the book available through even more retailers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since its release in May, the self-published edition of <em>Easy<\/em> has spent nine weeks on the <em>New York Times<\/em> bestseller list, landed on the <em>USA Today<\/em> bestseller list, and sold more than 150,000 e-book copies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so excited to team with Berkley Books and Penguin Young Readers to republish <em>Easy<\/em>, providing it with a wider distribution to a more diverse audience than I could have accomplished through self-publishing channels alone,\u201d Webber said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As some of you may know, I absolutely LOVED this book and had mixed emotions learning that Tammara decided to sell the print and digital rights to Penguin Group. I&#8217;m happy that the book is doing so well and so many other readers will get an opportunity to read it because as we all know, Penguin will give it more exposure both in digital and big time in print. I&#8217;m sure the deal was an extraordinary good one and in Tammara&#8217;s best interest in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>The other part of me wanted <strong>EASY<\/strong> to remain self-published because then it would have made it much cheaper to purchase for everyone who was going to stumble upon it in the future. As it is, the book will more than likely take a $6.00 jump and I know for myself, there are VERY few books I&#8217;m willing to purchase at $7.99 much less $9.99. That&#8217;s what I do love about really great self-published books, readers can usually get them at a very good price and it&#8217;s a huge reason readers are so willing to try them, which is of course a big reason they do so well. Let&#8217;s face it you can&#8217;t beat a great story at a great price. I&#8217;m sure there are a number of books I&#8217;ll never read simply because I won&#8217;t pay that much for the book.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m ecstatic that I was able to read and enjoy <strong>EASY<\/strong> before the big price jump, which will go into effect Oct 9th.<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-9663\" data-postid=\"9663\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-9663 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, just a couple of changes I&#8217;ve made with the blog and giveaways.
