Megan: What about Raptor Red?
Me: I …. did not want to be seen reading Raptor Red in front of my in-laws
Megan: hmph
Me: MEGAN it’s a dinosaur romance novel
Megan: I TOOK IT ON THE SUBWAY
Me: Oh, I’ll TAKE IT ON THE SUBWAY; I don’t care about the subway. Shit, I openly read Twilight on the subway. I care about people I know seeing me read it. And not even most people I know—just people who wouldn’t understand why I’m reading a dinosaur romance novel. So: my in-laws. No one else would be surprised to see me reading a weird YA dino love story.
Megan: It’s not JUST a love story you know. Other stuff happens. You LEARN.
