Why read it?
1 author picked Bit by the Bug as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have a soft spot for romance novels, where love wins in the end. Here’s a romance that involves a man with a somewhat unappealing nerdity: he studies insects. At first, he seems like a stereotypical nerd who doesn’t care about anything but his bugs.

From Steve's list on help you love nerds.
