I was about to post a long "The fact that..." post explaining why but then I remembered that she didn't write ducks newburyport. Which means I can't even call an example of her writing to mind.

I haven't finished a book to sell yet.

Who knows, maybe there is a market for the kitchen sink portal fantasy slop I am writing. Then again I might have trouble even giving it away for free.
Won't know until it's done.

Nearly 50% of the book market is white urbanite liberals and their black pets buying whatever FOTM book is recommended to them by their favorite Democratic Party approved media outlet, blog, or their hipster-professional social circle. The other 50% is low brow gooners and fantasy slop readers, sadly.

Apparently you don't read either. That has nothing to do with them not reading. He's just saying they don't read "his" sources specifically about the news, which is entirely irrelevant.

She writes clean prose bros. Her strength is dialogue. I've only read one chapter from the copy of "The Girl Who Gave Me HPV" while she was in the shower. You need to understand the world we live in. People do not want books to make them feel uncomfortable. They do not want to be challenged or made to feel stupid. Of course there are exceptions. But books have become synonymous with big cups of warm tea and blankets and rainy afternoons.

I didn't expect such close-minded from this board but then I remembered most people here are naive college students who are also closetted commies who believe in aristocratic souls and gay apollonian v dionysian dualities and anyone who says otherwise is soulless.

>ugly

>communist
her novels always feature characters with anti-capitalist talking points, but in the end conservative values and lifestyle choices win them over
>sold 500 billion books
three million worldwide of all her novels in total. phenomenal. but then again, Tom Clancy comes in with over 100 million and 50 Shades of Grey trumps them both with 150 million copies with just that one series.

I have never seen a black guy read a FOTM woke book recommended by Democrats and I've worked in a community of mainly Black guys for five years.
One Ugandan migrant reads YA books from the 90s about sports teams because its simple enough for him to understand as an ESL, one was a lonely intellectual type and read Steinbeck, most just don't read at all
It's white women who buy these. As for the White woman in the OP, I never heard of her till she started screetching about Jews. Seems like a fraud
