So tomorrow is my happy bookday, as A Red-Rose Chain drops and everything is awesome. I'll open a talkpost for y'all as early as I can, but I have a morning dentist appointment, so it may not be as early as I'd like. Please do not leave spoilers on other threads; wait for the talkpost to open, for the sake of people who may not be able to read right away, okay? Thank you so much.
I am super nervous. Pocket Apocalypse didn't make the NYT list, and I really, really hope A Red-Rose Chain does. So please forgive a little twitchiness as we go into the final countdown.
You're all amazing. Thank you for being here, and letting me tell you stories.
I am being a good girl and ordering it from the local indie bookstore. Which for some reason usually takes them 2-3 days on average to get a book even though I ordered it last week. Grr.
Oh well, still trying them first instead of other alternatives so I can keep another bookstore in town :P
You have more patience than I do. I walked to the nearest independent store likely to have it, and when they didn't (they said they could order it), I walked five blocks further to Barnes and Noble. Of course, the fact that the weather is less than pleasant right now, and the fact that it was a 20-30 minute walk might have played into that decision... Oh, who am I kidding. I just couldn't wait to read it.
Hah, well, in my case the B&N's are a 30 minute drive away and I don't have time to go over there until...god knows when. I used to go to Borders when it was a 10 minute walk from my work (the indie is a 20 min walk in more...interesting...traffic), but those days are gone.
Though the good news is, I had my book by 5:30 that night :) Woot!
