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 still maintain that the miniaturized bulldogs were produced by a University of Georgia alum. Obviously. They have a pretty serious life sciences division over there including a top-rated vet school. Plus..well. When I lived in Athens I met a woman who ran a beauty shop on Lumpkin St. She took her pet bulldog with her to work *every day.* In her convertible. She put perfume on him so he wouldn't smell doggy.

UGA Life Sciences + completely unhealthy obsession with football and by extension anything Dawg = miniature bulldogs. QED.

I liked the book a lot but frankly didn't understand why everyone was pissed at Shaun over him and Becks. He was in mourning and (they all knew) kind of off his rocker and she cornered him in the bathroom. She had every right to be upset about how it went down but everyone uniformly blaming him? I don't get that.
I ranted about the reaction to Shaun's faux pas upstream already. (Okay, you know he's so broken he's Talking to His Dead Sister!)
