But sadly the cheap bookshop here is full of it. I always involuntarily scowl at those books while making my way to the much-more-wholesome military history section.

I stare moodily into the middle distance with narrowed eyes for a few seconds, snap out of it and say "sorry, I was back there for a minute".

You don't know? OF COURSE YOU DON'T FUCKING KNOW! YOU WEREN'T THERE, MAN!

a whole section? I don't think I understand - is this like Twilight and various bookalikes? Or is it some new genre I've not yet encountered of "I'm in love with my poltergeist" type books?
Or maybe - "fucking with angels - how to seduce the Lord's heavenly choir"
Hey - i like that. Especially chapter 12: dogging with angels.

They should surround the grand master paintings in the Tate with policemen, and anyone caught looking at the naked cherubs should be immediately arrested for paedophilia.

those naked, doe-eyed flirty little cherubs are enough to drive anyone to paedophilia and should be banned immediately. As should Jesus - he's been giving me come-on eyes lately and I think it's turning me gay.
That's why images of Muhammad are banned, you know.

I'm just saying that Muhammad has this pouty look that he does that instantly turns other men into homosexuals, and therefore all his followers are gay - that's all.

There's a painting of dozens of nude pre-pubescent children just standing around a forest stream all facing towards the viewer. I can't remember who the artist was now, but I do remember that he was Belgian. "Figures" I thought to myself.

is books like Twilight. I think the main characters are typically a human woman and a man who's a vampire, werewolf etc.
Buffy fans seem to be generally convinced that Buffy has nothing to do with this sort of silliness.
