Via John Scalzi, 
the Bitch magazine staff post a reading list of "100 Young Adult books for the Feminist Reader," and after complaints are raised about the inclusion of Margo Lanagan's Tender Morsels, they decide to do 
a feminist impression of the curators at the Smithsonian. A kerfuffle ensues. You may recall 
a similar flap a couple years back over the inclusion of Lanagan's short story "The Goosle" in 
  The Del Rey Book of Science Fiction and Fantasy.
I haven't read 
  Tender Morsels
 yet, but Lanagan's 
  Black Juice
 was one of my most treasured discoveries during my stint as a Tiptree judge. So you may want to check it out. Gal's obviously got a knack for affecting people.
