   Book 86: Nicked. I knew M. T. Anderson from the book Feed and now he writes books for adults. This promised to be a book about grave robbing and a pox epidemic that takes place in *checks notes* 1087! If you're one of those "Likes to think about ancient Rome" people and that synopsis sounds appealing, then this is the book for you. I liked but did not love it. It had a lot of new words, many of which felt a little extra. The basic story line is solid with some fun queer overtones. Few women.
