The Never Ending Review - following a book through all the phases of its not-upcoming release
DEC. 2. Where the heck is this book?!?!
Dec. 2 and still no news. Though the blurb has been slightly expanded. But still http://www.lindenpressbooks.com/ is a dead end, and Amazon doesn't acknowledge it...Also, the author is apparently a ghost - no website, no contact page whatsoever...

Won a copy of this from Librarything back in January but have yet to receive my copy. Hopefully the publisher will send it because I was really looking forward to reading it. :(

I won this in the LibraryThing January 2012 Early Reviewers batch, but I still haven't received a copy. Maybe the delay in publication is holding it up?
Has anyone heard anything re: the LT Early Reviewers giveaway (in January '12) of this? Still haven't received anything . . .
