so i read this book . . .

I read this book about Oprah's Book Club (OBC) for a class i'm taking. There were chapters of it that were so enlightening, the author actively discussed changing the academic opinion of OBC to give some power back to the average reader, namely women who are the primary market for fiction novels. But the second half of her book her entire argument fell apart. She criticized some of the books selected, she focused on very academic views of what reader's do while they read. I was so angry by the end of the book I felt like throwing it. But, at the same time, it has really been a while since a book has made me feel that much. . . .
