“She said that her customers prefer fiction and non-fiction to pulpy genre stuff, but perhaps more importantly, that lots of people buy books in the airport every day.”

So why is it airport newsstands carry so much genre stuff? And the other books are often hardcover…I hate it when I have to resort to buying a book in the airport.
