I’m trying to buy Strangers in Death right now. I wanted this book two weeks ago when others (the ones who’d pre-ordered the hardback) started getting it. But I was patient. Yes, I was tempted to buy a bootleg copy, but I didn’t. I waited for the official release. And now, the day it’s officially release, i can’t find it in any format but MobiPocket. Why is that, I wonder, when every other time she’s released a new book it’s available immediately in all formats?
I suppose I’m being punished, right?
I WANT STRANGERS IN DEATH! HELLO!!!!!
I had a nice rant worked up over this, but I’m giving it. I’m tempted to not buy the book period now. Yes, I’m that annoyed.
$)(&@)*!)#*@)#
ME WANT TOO!!
I need my Roarke fix.
You want this book so bad, you have posted this twice. LOL
🙂
Holly, I took the liberty of removing the duplicate post. Annoyance aside, I just have to assume you didn’t mean to post the same exact post twice. LOL.
So the official release date is today (the 20th), right?
I haven’t even ordered it yet. Or maybe I have, I can’t remember. I guess I better go check Amazon.
The official release day was yesterday, Casee. And I want, I want, I WANT!!! but have to wait for amazon to deliver it later this week (what can I say? cheaper hardcover + free shipping = azteclady waits (im)patiently)
On the double posting: funny, I’ve seen it in a couple other blogs this morning *grin* something going around, perhaps?
I am so with you on the cheaper hardcover, azteclady. I think I’ve broken down a few times when I just couldn’t wait, but that’s not going to happen this time. Every year I get a little cheaper. LOL
Oops, sorry about the double post. Obviously I was worked up enough that I felt it needed to be said twice. LOL
I still don’t understand why it’s only available in one format. The thing is, it’s on sale at Books on Board, but only in the one format. WTF???
At this point I won’t say I got it – good price – I read it, I loved it. That would be like rubbing salt in the wounds wouldn’t it?
(bad Kristie – slap yourself on the wrist
Ouch! that hurt!)
Kristie, that’s just plain ol’ mean! LOL
Kristie is just mean!! I tell you, if you were leaving closer and I knew it wouldn’t get lost in the mail, I would have send it to you. come to think of it, I should really have done that. Next time…
