What a joy it is to have friends who recommend wonderful books (thanks Myrrh)! Busman's Honeymoon is delightful--it has everything a book needs: romance, smoking and elegance. And Sayers even lets us into Bunter's mind, which is a rare treat(although I was utterly ashamed that I do not live up to Harriet Vane's refraining from lipstick in order to not smudge the cigarettes).

Sayers: Busman's Honeymoon- that looks like a good book.
Mr. Sayers: Just because Emily recommended it?
Sayers: Because Sayers wrote it. See, I'm named after her on this blog.
Wait, isn't it sexy to leave lipstick stains on things -- especially cigarettes?
Sexy in a woman-of-the-night sort of way.
