GEMS? Please, it's an INSULT to literature! What VALUE do you see?

That's what I like about it. It has balance. We have Feminism going one way....and male POV the other.

Open-minded? Ha! Don't mistake my ability to listen to opposing views for actual agreement. This book...this book is an abomination. It deserves no shelf space.
