So, all unexpectedly, today is Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen e-ARC release day.

My body is not ready.

o.O

*soothes self by writing unusually terrible things happening to Bucky Barnes*

oh GOD I had managed to forget that IT'S WAITING FOR ME IN MY INBOX

[dira]

*deep breaths*

It's okay. I'll wait. It'll wait until you're ready.

[azurelunatic]

I capslocked my way through it last night in about 4.5 hours.

I am no longer angry about a stray sentence from the late 80s/early 90s.

[dira]

Glad to hear it! :D

[dira]

...and, awkwardly, having still not read the book but heard a bit more about it (and, like, actually thought through what the obvious plotline must be from the title) I am... actually angry about that sentence for the very first time.

[reginagiraffe]

"Oliver" sounds so WEIRD!

[dira]

Yeah, I feel like I'm gonna spend at least the first few chapters going "Oliver. Huh."

[princessofgeeks]

*pets you*

It'll be there whenever you're ready.

[dira]

*snuggles*

Yes. And I'm feeling a bit more at peace with the whole thing today. *g*

[laurajv]

damn youuuuuu because of this I wasn't in bed until late and also it's distracting me from three things that MUST BE DONE by 6pm today what

[dira]

Sorryyyyyyyy!!

[neotoma]

I'm going to wait until I have a new job, or have read every other book on my Kindle, but oh, how I want to get the E-ARC...

[dira]

I keep reminding myself that, like, the book is not actually out yet. But knowing it's available....

[neery]

Holy fucking shit, but I'm not even caught up with the series yet!

I read the whole Vorkosigan series in two months in, IDK, 2012 or so? and read it quickly enough that I have trouble remembering most of the details now. So I was going to reread stuff before Cryoburn comes out. Except I never seem to have the time to commit to reading like ten books, and then another new book came out, and now I'm even further behind. I WANT TO READ THIS, THOUGH. How much am I going to regret it if I spend my entire free time in my upcoming nightshift period reading Vorkosigan novels?

[dira]

:D I mean, only you can say for sure? And the book doesn't ~really~ come out until February, so you could always wait until then. If you want to. *g*
