Go to any mainstream bookstore and look at bestsellers or browse goodreads to find out, women are the main market force in the modern literature industry.

I've always thought of Brown's work as YA but for dudes, do women really read him much?

>> No.10570496

who cares

>>10568524
this is actually the real answer. Women dont read, they just want to look like they read so they can seem smart/educated/interesting where in fact theyre dull husks with a moist catacomb of blood walled irrelevancy

My favourite authors are Dostoevsky, Wu Ch'eng en, Bulgakov, Woolf, Joyce, Cervantes, Kundera and Zola. I read lots of classics and have just started on "the greeks". Talk to me about any of those, and I'd be happy. But my family is very /lit/ so I might not be the average.

>> No.10572188

I like classics, but judging from my female friends, you'd best try your luck with harry potter and YA.

>> No.10572195

Shitty poetry that make them feel special. Pablo Neruda comes to my mind.
