...is probably similar in a lot of ways to Archer & Co.'s...except my kids have fur and my spouse is another woman. (Insert your favorite crazy cat lady joke here ). I work outside the home, knit in my leisure time, am a long-time cancer survivor, have a crazy schedule a lot of days.
But I want to run screaming from any group that thinks it will capture the "landscape" of my life--and one that assumes I want to limit my precious book-buying $ to reading just that. I'm not reading only about gay/lesbian issues, nor am I reading only about cat issues or cancer-related topics.
On my current reading list: Alastair Cooke's book about America during 1941-42, massage therapy texts, "Shadow Divers", "The Egyptologist" and assorted ghost stories.
If they've done their marketing homework and feel they can read everyday American women within that age group, god[dess]speed. But I won't be surprised if it folds in a year or so--or publishes very niche-y tomes.
