Both of these were found through reviews on Dear Author, otherwise I'd have avoided them like the plague - like you, I tend to avoid lit fic as most of it is depressing.
I'll *think* about it. But I'm rather mulish about the lit category.

As for Grafton's sales--the raw numbers aren't always the important thing--the trend can matter (from book to book), what advance was paid...and the raw numbers, of course.
