So.Much.Pink. |
This was only the first cart of many teen books to go through. It was pretty ironic getting tasked to do this because I just read a Smithsonian article on how pink and blue came to define gender in society: 'When Did Girls Start Wearing Pink?'. Just after going through this one cart, my retinas were seared. I liken it to being out in the snow on a sunny day for awhile and when you come back inside and everything white appears pink.
Actually our YA section isn't a sea of pink here. It looks all dark and gloomy.
ReplyDeleteHey MISS MISFIT,
DeleteYeah, the few shelves we label "YA" is pretty abysmal, just the Twilight series alone takes up a few rows.
Which reminds me: *note to self* Weed YA Call Numbers "MEY"...
