Okay so clicking through this forum, I see a lot of people write between 40K and 60K. I am in the YA category, it's a dystopia, but my word count is 103K completely finished and ready for querying. I've seen books in this category that hearty before ,like Divergent, but is it unusual? Will it turn off authors from wanting to read past my query and synopsis? Will it turn off beta readers for taking it on for critique?
