DMV Nerdettes Read! 📚⚔️ | Blood of Hercules by Jasmine Mas
About the event
Join DMV Nerdettes for our November book club as we dive into *Blood of Hercules* by Jasmine Mas, a dark fantasy retelling of Greek mythology filled with gods, power, violence, romance, secrets, and a very different take on Hercules.
📅 Saturday, November 7, 2026 🕚 11:00 AM 📍 Green Pig Bistro 2900 Wilson Blvd, Arlington, VA
Green Pig Bistro is in Clarendon, about a 5-minute walk from the Clarendon Metro station on the Orange and Silver lines, so it’s accessible even if you don’t drive.
This one is for the fantasy and mythology girlies. We’ll talk favorite characters, wild plot choices, romance, mythology, and the deeper themes underneath it all: gender, power, class, trauma, agency, heroism, and what makes someone a “monster” or a “hero.”
🍳 Food & Drinks Brunch, lunch, cocktails, and other drinks are available for purchase. Food and drinks must be purchased separately. Audiobook listeners are welcome, and if you don’t finish every page, you can still come participate. Just know that spoilers will be discussed. Come ready to eat, drink, debate, laugh, and talk mythology, magic, romance, and chaos with the Nerdettes. 💜
