This.
There are good chick flicks, maybe decent "chick albums", but if you're looking for worthwhile chick books you'll find nothing.

I would consider it to be a book which is written for and read by, predominantly women.

most of the books by women that I like are about men

Do Anna Karenina and Madame Bovary count?
They're probably the only books that I read about women that I liked.

The ghost story bits of Wuthering Heights were okay but a whole lot of that book was pretty dull.

This shit if read as a deconstructionist is fucking horrifying. If read as a tabloid piece of shit it is mediocre.

I unironically love Pride & Prejudice. Lizzy is the best.

I kind of liked Return of the Native too but had reservations about some melodramatic shit in it.
Eustacia was an interesting but flawed character though.

Finnegan's Wake.

I'm serious, every girl I've met has read it. I mean shit, maybe they don't understand it, but most people don't anyway.

Even the most intelligent races . . . are a large number of women whose brains are closer in size to those of gorillas than to the most developed male brains. This inferiority is so obvious that no one can contest it for a moment; only its degree is worth discussion. . . . Women . . . represent the most inferior forms of human evolution and . . . are closer to children and savages than to an adult, civilized man. They excel in fickleness, inconsistency, absence of thought and logic, and incapacity to reason. Without a doubt there exist some distinguished women, very superior to the average man but they are as exceptional as the birth of any monstrosity, as, for example, of a gorilla with two heads; consequently, we may neglect them entirely

Great art transcends gender boundaries. If a book is considered just a good dude book, it is probably not that great.

The Devil Wears Prada was okay until I looked it up on Wikipedia and realized that it wasn't all a true to life account of working for Anna Wintour. That killed it because I had mostly been enjoying it under the assumption that everything described about the boss was supposed to be a portrait of a real insane person.
