Judithe | 6566 comments Endgame is FINALLY up for pre-order! Hooray! Amazon.co.jp is supposed to be sending it to me around August 28...how many days is that???????????

Gin | 99 comments You guys are so organized. How do you keep up with what's coming out when? I always just randomly stumble upon new releases in series I'm reading


message 53: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Stalking....LOL!

Really, some books I just can't wait to get, so periodically check for them when I have a couple of minutes. I also use Fictfact to know what's coming up (especially easy to check in series I'm "caught up with"). Also, peeping at the R&R threads here (everybody has a favorite author~or 2, 3,10~ and puts up info whenever they get it), and so on...

I've friended a LOT of author's on facebook, it's a great way to keep up to date with what's going on!

Gin | 99 comments I'm sure it would have quite the following


message 59: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments The release calendar @ fictfact is SO helpful!


message 60: by Gin (new)

Gin | 99 comments what is fictfact?


message 61: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_mc) | 2158 comments http://www.fictfact.com/bookreleaseca...

Fictfact is a website that can be used to track all your series. It's pretty time consuming to input all the data, but it would be worth it in the end.
r you can just use the release calendar, February's is the link above.


message 62: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Gin, there's also a bunch about it over on the How do you keep track of your series? thread, plus links to follow some SOS friends if you're interested!

I just love it...I can find the same stuff here, but it's so visually easy to see where I'm at in my series, and on the ones I'm caught up on, it's soooo easy to see when the newest book will be coming out. LOVE IT!


message 63: by Gin (new)

Gin | 99 comments Wow thanks, I'm gonna have to try out fictfact


message 64: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

message 72: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments I keep pre-ordering it and cancelling - the price is holding me back! Alyssa, did you order the ebook or the hardcover?


message 73: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (lyssad87) | 974 comments Hardcover. I think it was like 41% off from B&N.com when I ordered it. That discount could just be because I have a membership though. Not sure.


message 74: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Great deal. Unfortunately, I am print-impaired. :P

message 89: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments I Pre-Ordered Siege (As The World Dies A Zombie Trilogy, #3) by Rhiannon Frater


message 90: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments We pre-ordered that one late last year, Regina. Hubby is constantly asking me, "Where's #3? When I can read #3?" I keep reminding him it's not out yet. (He wants to only read the Tor releases) Goofball, but I love that he loves them too.

Some of my pre-orders:

... well, screw it, GR is being a little b*tch again. I'll come back later when I can post covers. :p


message 91: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Haha! That is funny! I have an ARC at home, but I haven't cracked it open I am saving it so I can offer it up for a raffle -- but darn it is tempting!! I get where he is coming from. I understand both Fighting to Survive and Siege were heavily edited, I could be wrong though. I am re-reading Fighting to Survive right now, the Tor version - -and it feels tighter, smoother and better (if that is possible?!!)


message 92: by D.G. (new)

D.G. | 2752 comments I've only pre-ordered ONE book in my whole life and that happened recently - I'm just never in a rush to read anything. Now I'll probably start doing it more often, but mostly because I want to support the authors. :)


message 93: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Sounds good, Regina. I'll have to re-read them, but the TOR version. He's really enjoyed them so far. I have the first Untold Tales TBR and keep forgetting about it, as it sits patiently on my bookcase. I want #2 as well. I am SO very, very anxious for Pretty When She Kills. I may re-read Pretty When She Dies first, since I read it back in 2009.

I don't pre-order as many as some, DG, but I do like to know that my faves are heading my way as soon as they are released. I don't always read them immediately though. But, like in the case of Kiss of Snow and a few others, I started reading them as soon as they were in my hot little hands (or eReader).


message 94: by Steph, Serious series addict (last edited Apr 18, 2012 05:36PM) (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Okay, lemme try this again.

LOL! Yeah, guess I should'a prefaced by saying that I have a lot of favorite authors. :)


message 95: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments The list looks lovely Steph! Pretty awesome ones coming up :)

(btw, do you not find it annoying that GRs have changed and now doesn't put the author with the title when you hover over the books? Is this the same with everyone?)


message 96: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Yes, Josie, I hate it. It's a real pain if you can't read the author on the cover cause then you've gotta go in and investigate.


message 97: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments Yes! Do you think they'll change it back?


message 98: by D.G. (new)

D.G. | 2752 comments Josie wrote: "Yes! Do you think they'll change it back?"

Go complain at the Goodreads Feedback group. I think some people have done so already.


message 99: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Good idea!!!!!!


message 100: by Josie (new)

Josie | 1967 comments I'm not part of GR Feedback group... yet. Maybe I should go join.
