DEADLINE open thread. Have a party.

To celebrate the release of Deadline [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy], here. Have an open thread to discuss the book.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned.

You can also start a book discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence. I will probably answer a great many comments. I may not answer all of them.

Have fun!

Y'know, I was gonna ask over dinner last January if Shaun/Georgia was canon. Then I decided it was too gross a question to ask over food, and that I was seeing too much into it. As someone who has no brothers, even adopted ones, the subject is merely academic, to me, and I've squicked more than one person asking rhetorical questions about their brothers.

And then we got to the full-body cloning stuff with Kelly, and I thought, "Hmmmm." Then I dismissed the notion, because, well, why George? I guess I'll find out in Blackout, huh?

So I'm feeling pretty smart today. But not too smart, because I have to keep reminding myself that the fact my mosquito bites are scabbed over from my scratching them means they've been there long enough for me to have amplified hundreds of times over, so I'm safe.

Also, I don't suppose you have an exact number for the amount of time Shaun spends naked, or nearly so? I joked with my housemate that it has to be close to 40% of the book. Now she can't wait to read it.

No exact percentage, but the boy has a definitely troubled relationship with his trousers in this one.

Had you asked over dinner, I would have been forced to LOOK A BUNNY you.

And then I would've been mortified and assumed it was too gross a question. So I'm glad I kept my thoughts to myself.
