Since I’m attending #Bouchercon for the first time this year, I’ve got an Anthony Award ballot to fill out.
Can anyone share some worthy nominees for best first novel, best paperback original, and best short story?

A few things real quick:
1. Chris Pine is a goddamn handsome dude.
2. We're not taking about the nut-huggers; we're simply not.
3. What do you suppose is Chris's go-to deli order, pastrami or corned beef? Definitely not tuna salad.
