  5. Let's hear it for the good girls

    If "Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History" (thank you, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, for the title that made your scholarly book famous), well-behaved girls seldom make literature, either. The drama in female characters usually comes from their rebelliousness, their inability to follow rules, their feistiness, their refusal to settle, their hot tempers, at the very least their tomboyishness or mischievousness. There's a reason why Scarlett O'Hara is the heroine rather than Melanie; Jo March rather than her sisters; Ramona Quimby rather than Beezus; Laura Ingalls rather than her perfect sister Mary. Junie B. Jones. Clarice Bean. Shy, awkward Bella in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series may be a nice girl, but she is, after all, determined to marry a vampire.

  11. 'Castle'

    The detective tale is like yellow cake -- at some level everyone likes it, and with a little imagination you can do pretty much anything with it.
