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!

And now I'm left to wonder if I'm the only person of my generation who never read VC Andrews....

depends on your generation - I'm 46, so I was hitting the right age juuuuust as the VC explosion was starting

I'll be 41 in a week - a little young for the first book when it was published, but old enough for them to have been ubiquitous on grocery store end-caps in my teens.

I'm turning 28 in a month and two days and I deliberately sought out Flowers in the Attic to see what the fuss was about. It left a bad taste in my mouth; Deadline did not. (Well, not about the incest, anyway. I freaked out a bit over the amplified spider, because funnel-webs. Like Australia needs to be any more lethal.)

Like Australia needs to be any more lethal.

Heh. Shortly before Our Gracious Hostess left on her Worldcon trip last year, I commented on her "Australia makes you die" tag, noting that an Aussie expatriate friend of mine had an "Australia will kill you" tag.

Breathe deep. Dr. Abbey has only managed to induce KA in FREAKIN' MASSIVE spiders. Funnel-webs will still just kill you.
