I mean, I do too, but there's a proliferation of MALONE IS THE BEST PERSON EVER AND I LOVE HER OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGYES I WISH I WAS MALONE BECAUSE SHE IS THE PRETTIEST OF ALL THE ANYONE EVER IN THE UNIVERSE EVER YES OHMIGOSH SHE IS SO COOL I AM NOT FIT TO BE IN HER PRESENCE HOLYCRAP MUFFINS.

Anyway, there's a proliferation of...these all-right-ly written girls, at least in the books I've read recently, and I'm sick of them. Cimorene is awesome in part due to her uniqueness--I have yet to read a book as good as hers about a character like her--and yes in part for defying the fairy tale...but that's fairy tales, and I guess my problem is with more historical-fiction-y stuff?

Calamity Jane gets Dois Day-ed? ...is that along the lines of "if you take the nerdy chick's glasses off she becomes a total babe"?
