Dear West Hartford Public Library:
I noticed this morning (for mighty is the power of the Google) that you have my novel, Mélusine, listed as a recent addition to your YA collection. I personally don't have any objection to teenagers reading my book, but it does contain graphic sex, violence, and swearing, and I don't want you all to get in trouble with irate parents.
I have now tried three times, from two different email accounts, to send you an email about this. Your firewall rejects me as spam. Next it will be telling me my mother was a hamster.
But thank you for buying my book.
Sincerely,
Sarah Monette
