People are surprised when I know about manga.
People are astonished when I know about urban fiction.
I've been at this for two and a half years. At the first library I worked in, "street fiction" and mellower domestic African-American fiction made up most of our demand for adult fiction; here, it's bestsellers and street lit. Ever since I had such trouble finding Flyy Girl when I didn't know it was spelled Flyy, I've been making an effort to keep up with titles and authors... it's kinda fun to psych people out.
