Two unrelated topics

Last night, instead of getting some sleep to really beat my illness, I stayed up and finished the last hundred pages or so of Kushiel's Scion. I liked this series on the whole, and I'm hoping Jacqueline Carey writes another one to finish the story; Imriel's mother is still out there, after all. Some people might have a problem with the series, as there is a lot of sex in it, some of it a little weird, but it all makes sense within the universe Carey has created. Sometimes I wonder if she created this Earth-yet-not-Earth specifically to write the sex, but whatever. Anyway, the sex was more out of place in this book than in the first three, but I expected it to be there so it didn't catch me off guard. It's fantasy but not in your traditional sword-and-sorcery kind of way, so people out there might be interested.

On another, more depressing note, I've worn really cute underwear three days in a row and have had no one to share it with. Sigh for my singledom.
