![]() It’s a unifying theme throughout the book, a filter through which she has to comport herself and live her life. I’m not saying that her fibromyalgia is a convenient plot device. Usually it makes me laugh a bit, but in this case it just adds to the clicky-ness that is Chloe Brown. So, today, the “I make lists” character is one who is one or all of those things but we’re on her side. Kiss Me, Kate has barely limped to the 21st century, but the adventures of Katherina and Petruchio have been deemed problematic for a while now. “I make lists” is a character trait used as a shorthand for all manner of words that we no longer deem kosher to describe female protagonists. ![]() She’s got a very clear, present sass/verve/vibe to her, which actually brought her entire character to life for me in a snap.
