I read it...I wholeheartedly agree...won't say anything more!

Dammit, I hate these people who get a hold of the book before the release date! Makes me severely cranky!

Mind you, lots of things make me severely cranky. Like lack of chocolate, PMS, not enough chocolate, not being able to get my grubby little paws on books before their release date, not enough chocolate. Things like that.

gotta have connections...that's all...or a BIG budget to play with on Ebay! But look at it this way...there are only 25 more days until WOLP hits the shelves!

and if you go to books etc we have a couple of quid off on the paperback...

I've just ordered WoLP off Amazon; I ran round screaming with joy afterwards.

But I still have to wait til July or August! (Argh!)

AAC - so you got one in the end - so glad. I knew of a copy sent here which was unclaimed for ages and was just about to sidle up to remove it to send over to you when the real owner turned up and claimed it! Damn! Knew I should have nicked it earlier....

I got one too. It is very good, innit? (I daren't say any more).

Wouldn't it be shorter to go through the list of people who haven't got a proof copy of WOLP ?

Me for starters :-(

me too. I even offered Mr Fforde a bribe in the form of a Chocolate Cloud Cake.

:(

me three :o(

But I got a nice package through from Amazon yesterday, so that will help me cope for 25 days. (Well, 5 books, so probably....5 days.)

Do something pretty while you can...

I'm re-reading my copy - started again last night. Funnier on the second read because I can now take time to really enjoy it whereas I find that the first reading I want to keep reading to find out what happens. Second and subsequent times the subtleties really start to stand out.

oh great. Not only do you have it, but you're re-reading it! Cruelty.

Me neither :(
but does anyone else pre-ordering from amazon.co.uk have a expected delivery date of March? (I remember at least one person saying this, but I'm too lazy to look back and find out meh bad)
I'm hoping it's just a glitch in their system, hope not though, I keep adding stuf to that order, it's up to about £60 so far and is likely to get bigger.....
(Of course I suppose the sensible thing to do would be to email them)



.

does it depend which version you have ordered, there are three, HB big PB and PB
the paperback is due out march time I think

If Jasper is unbribable even with chocolate cloud cake, then it's safe to say he's unbribable.
