But we'll leave it at that. I think the only reason it was labeled chick-lit is because it was written in the first person. The entire book is focused on Jack and Emma's relationship, not just on Emma w/ Jack in the peripheral, so I'd consider it a romance.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I do see where you're coming from, though.
