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!

I had to wait until a day off since I knew that I wouldn't be able to put Deadline down.

You know how people describe a book as "so good you can't put it down"?

This book is so good I *had* to put it down periodically and recite, "These are characters in a story. These are characters in a story. These are characters in a story. . . ."
I had to put it down after, "She would have gotten better." That line just broke my heart.
I swore at that line. A lot.
No one in my house has read the book yet. I had to be content with wordless noises of frustration.
I lucked out in that I was home alone at the particular point I hit that line. Whether or not my husband had read the book, I could NOT have said what I said to it if my 2-year-old had been in the vicinity. :P
