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!

There's also the heads-up right before that, when Shaun says that him having condoms was a pre-George thing. Here's my brain:

"Wait, hold on, does that mean what I don't think that means?"

2-3 pages later, once we actually get to the scene with the name mix-up:

"Yep. Huh. Well then, that answers it. No, wait, maybe it's a slip of the tongue? No? Yes? Maybe? Huh."

The next morning, after his discussion with Alaric:

"Yep. Ok. Lovers too. Got it."

I'm trying to say (badly) that the reveal was very skillfully written. I can't remember if the comment about him not having to worry about girls throwing themselves at him because Georgia would shoo them away came before or after? Either way, I was super-impressed on the mechanics of HOW the reveal happened.
