I like Tanya Huff too. Though, I think the bookstore section an author belongs in really should be based on what she's writing about. I don't think her vampire series should be fantasy...not necessarily horror either. They didn't scare me. But, when I think fantasy, I don't think vampires...it's a different subgenre.
As for the whole chick lit thing...well, maybe. But, the thing about Tanya Huff is the relationships she writes may have elements of romance. But, to compare them to what LKH does is insulting. I mean, Tanya Huff actually has believable characters that aren't obsessed with sex and psychological melodrama. She's much better and more subtle when it comes to writing about relationships. I don't think I've ever once gotten irritated with any annoying bs with Tanya Huff like I have with LKH.
