Week 7: Assignment 3

I was impressed with the post on Shannon Hale's blog about the genre-neutral book talks and the reaction the revelation of the "gendered" sparked. I expect more buy-in to the "girl" vs "boy" books at a much younger age, but the narrow-mindedness of parents of older children was astonishing.

Yay for the posts about the development of Shadowhunt on Cassandra Clare's blog. Assuming you're already following her, they would seem to increase the anticipation for the next book. If you're not already following her, it seems like a waste of time and effort, rather like the book tour that forever takes away from writing the next book.
