CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT open thread!

To celebrate the release of Chimes at Midnight, here. Have an open thread to discuss the book. Judging by the comments I'm seeing, some of you have had time, and I'd really, really rather book discussion (sometimes including spoilers) didn't crop up on other posts.

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.) I will be DELETING all comments containing spoilers which have been left on other posts. No one gets to spoil people here without a label.

You can also start a 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, and try not to bleed on the carpet.

Okay, maybe this is weird, but one thing I really, really appreciated in this book was the explanation of where Tybalt's leather pants come from... and that they're (possibly) the result of a studied insult. I like that there's a reason for it and that it isn't because someone is being "nice" (or even libidinous, for that matter).

Beyond that, it's lovely. Beyond that, I like knowing where "Annie" came from as a name. Beyond that, way to settle the act-one gun of the hope chest (so far, at any rate). Beyond that, thank you for May/Mai and her interaction with her siblings - that was beautiful and aching. :-) Beyond that, Quentin talking about duty -- I like that he used a tone that Toby had never heard, because it means it's not the way he would have said it (if he would have said it) back when he was a bit of a snot in Book One.

Thank you. It was lovely. :-)


TTFN,
Amazon.
