You mean like Dan Brown/John Grisham/books you see on display at the entrance of airport bookstores?

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

Dan Brown and John Grisham are included in that, yes. But I don't want to say airport novels, because airports also sell romances, and while I have issues with women in romances, they're not shrill or oversexualized.

(Come to think of it, mysteries are genre and basically non-nerdy, and I've seen some good female characters in the ones that aren't full-on thrillers.)

How about this: I dislike a lot of female characters in recent fiction that isn't typically considered "genre," with the exception of the ones in non-genre fiction that's really highbrow and artsy.

...what bodice rippers have you been reading? Did you somehow miss the biggest romance series in the past decade, 50 Shades of Gray, starring one of the worst female characters of all time?
