The Twilight Of Our Literacy, Part 6
Customer: “I’ve read all of the Twilight books. I love them! Has Stephenie Meyer done anything else?”
Me: “Yes, she wrote another book called The Host.”
Customer: “Great! I didn’t see any other books where the Twilight series is, though.”
Me: “This one is actually shelved in science fiction. I’ll show you.”
Customer: “Science fiction?! Why?”
Me: “Well, she didn’t write it for the young adult section. Plus, given the subject matter I guess that’s what made the most sense.”
Customer: “What’s wrong with the subject matter?”
Me: “Nothing. It’s about an alien, so–”
Customer: “Wait, an alien?! So… there are no vampires?”
Me: “No, not in this one.”
Customer: “Forget it. I only read vampire books these days. Aliens are just too unrealistic.”
