When will you Rise? Seanan at Borderlands Books, 6/11/11.

Now that you've had about a week to read and enjoy Deadline (and to jump in over on the spoiler thread, which is rocking and rolling like whoa), it's time for a party! Specifically, it's time for a Borderlands Books party, which are some of the best parties in the world.

Since this is a Mira Grant party, it's going to be somewhat more low-key than a Toby release. We'll have readings, signings, Q&A, and, of course, cupcakes. The festivities will begin at 5:00 PM, and continue until 8:00 PM, with cupcakes served at 6:30, to divide the evening. Which brings me to...

The first Q&A will be held from 6:00-6:30 PM, and it will be a spoiler-free session. I'll repeat that before we start. Some people still haven't read Feed, and I'd like them to have the chance to get in, say hello, grab books, get a cupcake, and run without having the ending of the book spoiled for them.

If you can't make it, remember that the bookstore does take internet and phone orders, and I'd be happy to sign and personalize anything they have on hand. You can find contact details on the bookstore website.

Hope to see you there!

What with my income being Social Security Disability, and the resulting lack of budget for books... and all these new-to-me authors who are so very, very good, and whose books I want to have on my shelves for the occasional 3am re-reading (and sometimes just to see them there, because hello, my name is Glenda and I'm a bookoholic)...

I was *extremely* happy to see that my library has Deadline on order. And I have it on hold. And I'm first in the queue! (I don't like horror. I don't like zombies, at all. I loved Feed; it's that good.)

(Ghods, I wish I could afford more books. And/or beads and wire. *huge sigh* )

I am glad your library is helping you out!

If I'd known you had this problem, I'd have figured out a way to loan you my copy. You're only a ferry ride and a whole lot of walking away. (Well, I think so - I don't know exactly where you live, I just have this vague idea that you're somewhere on Bainbridge Island, which isn't exactly narrowing it down much...)
