I love how a few days ago I was saying things like "i'm waiting till the 6th July" then someone can post a picture of TUC in a Waterstones 500 miles away and 25 minutes later I'm on a train station platform shivering cause i only have a hoodie over a basset hound t-shirt which is so small my gut hangs out the bottom a bit and old tracksuit bottoms covered in dog hair as a couple of hours before i was playing with my neighbours dog.

you might be asking why i'm here and not reading, I am waiting for my bath to fill :D

I'm in dubio whether I should stick to waiting a few more weeks for the hardcover I ordered, or simply order a paperback instead...

Enjoy it... you'll have another, different problem soon: to not be able to discuss it yet. LOL

That's what I'm doing, though not at Waterstones, I can always buy the HC later on.

Lol, love it.

You're probably finished now already :o?!

Lol - all depends on what you want, Monkhound. There's always the ebook, if you need it early but still want the hardcover.

;)

I'm going to what I can to make sure no one is discussing it before the 6th. It's only a week now!

Lol, Hiro. I'm always on Skype, which GJ and I have often used for text, if you want to bug me there ;).

Poor Quorumtender probably won't know what's happening when he logs on today.

No not finsihed yet Madness. I started to get really tired, so put the book down and got a sleep, read the majority of the book though.

Merch, do you claim that you not only are a master-bath-reader, but have major bath-sleeping capacities as well?

I'm so excited for this book...seriously, I went back into full Second Apocalypse obsession mode just because it's coming out so soon (even though I really, really, shouldn't because I still have very important work-related things to do this month...).

I ordered mine from Amazon last week, though it's only estimated to arrive sometime between the 14th and the 17th. :( Though that date may change once it's actually shipped? (on the 6th, I suppose)
"But you’ve simply made the discovery that Thelli made—only without the benefit of her unerring sense of fashion."
-Anasûrimbor Kayûtas (The Great Ordeal, chapter 13)

"You prefer to believe women victims to their passions, but we can be at least as calculating as you. Love does not make us weak, but strong."
-Ykoriana of the Masks (The Third God, chapter 27)
