Oh hai! I am an English teacher who is obsessed with female characters, and I wrote this fic about two ladies having a book club in which they mostly discuss books written by female authors. In other news that will surprise no one, the sky is blue.

Summary:
The rules of the book club are as follows:
1. Book club is called book club. If you have some other stupid name for it, don't say it out loud.
2. No inviting boys.
3. No inviting Gina. She only reads Twilight.
4. No graphic violence (in books, or at meetings).
5. Nothing approximating a romance novel.
6. No setting disagreeable selections on fire.
I try not to be obsessed with hits or kudos or things, but I'm super-psyched the story did well, not the least because it was an eleventh-hour treat and I almost didn't post it. I am officially banned from Yuletide next year because I defaulted two years in a row, and I know I could get myself un-banned, but I'm choosing not to. I think I have learned my lesson about ginormous, multi-fandom exchanges in which I am not guaranteed to have anything in common with my assigned recipient. I need to write treats and pick up pinch hits and leave it at that.
