OMG I am so freakin' excited!! I wanted to read this soooo bad, I might have to put American Gods to the side (because I haven't even started it...) and just yay.

[J, Moderator]

Hadn't even heard of this until a few days ago. It looks like a fantastic read!

I think it's going to be really fun. I thought for sure we were going to have to do a tie-breaker poll. This book and I am the Messenger were tied for first place throughout the poll. Someone finally came in late yesterday and broke the tie with their vote.

It looks super interesting! I'll be looking for it at the local used book store this weekend. :)

[Kelly]

Awesome! Excited to get reading.

Oh, man, what a super offer. I already ordered mine, or I would totally take you up on this.

Will the format work for kindle? I was going to check it out of the library but all copies are on reserve >.<

I can send you a MOBI version and if you send that to your Kindle via email it'll convert it and put it on for you. :) PDF's will go onto too but they're rubbish unless it's a comic book because they go on as images and make it hard to read.

Do you know your kindle email?

[Kristen (RAoA), Moderator]

:) I have it in PDF as well. It's very, very small type.

[Chrissy]

How can I go about getting the PDF format? I want to start reading the book like tomorrow, but couldn't find it at the local bookstore or in the library. It will be Friday before I can order it off Amazon.

I think JewishPopcorn just needs you to PM her with your email address.

Oh man, I read this one awhile back. So good, so weird. I'm glad I have a reason to revisit it... but I guess Slaughterhouse Five is taking a back seat for a bit.

[Christina, Moderator]

I am intrigued...reserved at the library. woot!

[Carie]

I can't wait to start reading tomorrow!

[Sheila (Damnyoureloud), Moderator]

My book arrived in the mail yesterday. Can't wait to start reading.

First in-progress discussion will take place Su 2/10 @ 3P EST on RAOA. It will cover Chapters 1-5. Look for Blissfully's post that day on RAOA. Happy reading, everyone!

Great book, read the whole thing over a week on an exercise bike, very funny, strangely gripping.
