LOL: Pretties. Those are fun books, and thank you - I hadn't realized a new one was out!

I disagree with literally everything in The Gate to Women's Country, but I've reread it multiple times and still like it a lot as a book. The way it's told and the emotions of the characters are very compelling to me. A lot of Tepper's storytelling appeals to me even though her biological determinist politics are not only appalling, they bother me more because we do agree on things like "rape is bad." It's just that her solution to "rape is bad" tends to be "so we should develop a test for rapists and then euthanize them as babies."
