I pre-ordered my copy from Powells, and got an e-mail yesterday that it shipped.
I don't know when it will arrive, but I've got plenty of reading material to hold me until then.(Am currently reading The Brightest Fell)
'Life of the Party'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Ha ha ha! At Rittenhouse Square! Surprise achieved!
Well done, Sparky1!
You guys this whole thing brightened my entire week.
Jess - my understanding is the delay is a twofold thing - partly coordinating Raviv's and Kristine's schedules. I am so sorry it's not out on time.
Sparky - he was texting you chapter by chapter?!? Why he no do this to me. I love hearing where people are. Mostly :)
If this should go in natter, I can move - or delete. I might delete anyway., but I have a bit of stalker - he earned himself a safecom black mark at one con this spring, after buying [firstbook], getting me to sign it, and then deciding that meant I was his now. Or something. He's popping up on Facebook posts about the launch, and probably was the source of my first amzn review (which is a gem). So thank you, this on top of a bunch of other stuff? Made the past few posts even brighter and more heartwarming than usual.
Ugh on the stalker. I'm sure you're taking care of it, but I just have to say please take care of yourself. Safety is more important than pride.
Also, does anyone have a safe site to ahem ePubs? I have books I want to reread that I already own (wrinkle in time, handmaids tale), plus I hate be a slave to a particular format like Kindle. I'd be happy to pay for an unrestricted ePub, but such a thing does not seem to exist. Any thoughts?
I have those in ePub, Vortex. I can email them to you. I've been collecting various ones that I have in less convenient paper format. Addicted to my Nook these days.
Calibre is really easy to use, and converts from every format to every other format, BTW. If it's something you want to mess with.
Dana, did you say earlier or somewhere else that the de-DRM function was broken as of a new kindle for computer update?
Not Kindle for computer. My problem was a firmware update for the Kindle. But maybe it's related?
The BBC is producing the first two books of Tana French's Dublin Murder Squad series, Into the Woods and The Likeness, as an 8-part series. I am excited and I really hope they get it right. [link]
The writer is the same one who wrote the latest And Then They Were None. Which I liked, but didn't love.
