BLACKOUT open thread!

To celebrate the release of Blackout, 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. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.)

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, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.

Have fun!

This is fair. I think I was a little too distracted by the fact that KA as a reservoir for intelligence was a possibility that occurred to me, that never got taken entirely off the table (because, of course, no one in the book knew enough to disillusion me) to really pick up on that. So that, combined with how convenient it ended up being (don't get me wrong, "Wait, you guys can see her too?" was HYSTERICAL, I laughed out loud, which was a problem, since I was reading in the bathroom at work and wasn't even really on break) served to get in my head and bug me a little.

Of course, the way haunting-Georgia shifted, at the end, being more obviously madness, was totally in the text and does serve to illustrate your point. I'm just a hard sell once I have an idear in my head. >_>

(What the dormouse said! I was on the "is there a telepathic bond because of the whole virus reservoir thing??" mode speculation for a while. O:>

Also, "You can see her too??" was so delightful!)
