Wow, for some reason incest has been the watchword of the week. Between looking at the sources and reasons for incest taboos in theory class, discussing the incestuous implications of Mansfield Park, discussing father-daughter marriage in my Chaucer class (we're doing the Clerk's Tale), and watching Gilgamesh, I'm beginning to sense a theme.
And I just got Tanya Huff's Smoke and Mirrors from the library* (it's part of her new series, which I like, about a gay production assistant on a Canadian Angel-esque show who happens to be the associate of a vampire and learning to be a wizard), and the two ghosts who kind of trigger the story and have played a major part in it so far (they're even on the cover) are a brother and sister who were killed by their father for, er... *points to icon*
I hope the world isn't trying to tell me something, because ew.
* = I totally mistyped that "lubrary," which gave me odd visions of like a place where you check out various kinds of lube. Though I really don't want to think about what happens when they get returned. XD
Edit: OMG FURUBA HOODIES I WANT HARU
