Nerd Day!

Dear Mr. Lecter,

I realized when I got home from work, that I wasn't inside at all except for when I got to work and there were no kids, and when I ate my lunch, which took all of fifteen minutes. The medication I'm taking for my wasp bites say I should avoid sunlight. Oops.

So, for Nerd Day! I'd like to recommend Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Dart:
You'll notice that this cover seems racier than the other books I've recommended. That's because it is. The main character is essentially a courtesan who's into pain. A lot. This gets her into and out of a lot of trouble, and makes for a very satisfying read. I know you're thinking, so, no, it's not erotic literature. It justs happens to be a book where sex is an important part of the plot, but as I recall, it's not graphic in nature.

Love,
Slayre
