I raved about Y: The Last Man to The Biochemist, and she's reading volume one now. Her comment: I'm confused about the stupidity of the Amazons. I mean, if there's only one man left and you CAN'T REPRODUCE WITHOUT HIM, why try to kill him? Yeah, I thought that was stupid but a commentary on the blindness or intransigence of a group based on their political perspective without acknowledging practicality. Plus, it reminded me of Children of Men and the disintegration of a society within sight of its own end.

See, that's what I thought too. Sometimes people can become so short-sighted. It made sense to me in the context.

And I picked up a copy of Pride of Baghdad yesterday. My local library had it listed as juvenile fiction, but it didn't seem particularly juvenile to me. Am I missing something? Or maybe just immature?

It's not just you, libraries around the country stack graphic novels in the young adult section. I don't understand *why* they can't put them in a graphic novel section of their own.

And, for the record, you're awesome. Just saying.
