I have absolutely no aversion to pink books. <br />The story sounds fantastic, I am trying desperately not to rush off to add it to my wishlist :DYnysawdre Elderly Residents Associationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08121225687563442558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19498800.post-905700572432264312010-08-23T14:01:25.356+01:002010-08-23T14:01:25.356+01:00What bothers me about some people's aversion t...What bothers me about some people's aversion to pink books (er, not yours) is that I can't help but worry that it's not just about them thinking 'pink = girly' but rather 'pink = girly = unimportant / trivial / lesser in whatever way than anything UNgirly'. Maybe I'm too sensitive about it, but as someone who is both very girly and very smart (but not all that modest, obviously) that's my take on the situation. So, what you said about pink books there really strikes a chord with me. Thanks!<br /><br />Sounds like the Sarra Manning story is pretty awesome. Excellent post all round. :)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06483030255023873716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19498800.post-84710004461868732022010-08-23T10:31:34.510+01:002010-08-23T10:31:34.510+01:00Thoroughly agree with your growing aversion to the...Thoroughly agree with your growing aversion to the vapid rescue-me girls we've been subjected to recently. And some pink books have strong girls, but too often in curiously restricted situations. Is this what we fought for in the sixties and seventies? I find I'm reading a lot more historical books to escape both types: 'Fallen Grace', 'Halo', 'A Most Improper Magick' for example.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13912774665400125173noreply@blogger.com
