i learned of these crazy books the other night at school, guess i'll be searching high and low to get a look at one of these.
here's a description:

From girl detective stories to novels about boy wizards, series fiction has long been a staple of young adult literature. One type of series less well-known today is the “career romance” or "career girl novel" that appeared during the 1940s through the 1960s, as women entered the workplace in increasing numbers. Publishers of juvenile fiction sought to exploit this demographic trend with books featuring accomplished and attractive young women simultaneously pursuing their professional and romantic goals.
