Oh gods, my usual online bookstore has Nona available for order. So tempted to slam that buy button.. Granted, with their free shipping it won't arrive until middle of next week anyway.  Might just get it after I wrapped up a project of mine as a little gift.

Lol announced, released, and sold out entirely overnight while I was sleeping. That said, I've got one Illumicrate release and while the design is nice, the paper stock is really low quality. Not sure if this is the same, but I'm always going to be a little suspicious of them. Also I bet those grapes were all really sour anyway.

It was announced a few weeks ago. There was a presale for Illumicrate customers or people who bought the black bordered Harrow from them. I got in at 11:00:01 and the site had all but crashed lmao

cptn_dr posted:Lol announced, released, and sold out entirely overnight while I was sleeping. Illumicrate books are just standard trade copies with a signature sheet tipped in (and usually sprayed edges). If there are issues with the paper quality, that falls squarely at the feet of the actual publisher (Tor, in this case).

simply hand-scribe your own edition with skull and titte marginalia. once the series is complete, bind it as a single vast volume in leather and bone.

You lucky basterd lol I preoreded my copy at an indie bookstore near me. Might be a toss-up on if they are hard on the street date or accidentally email me early saying that I can come and pick it up now  guys it's Nona week Edit: itshappening.gif https://twitter.com/Panediting/status/1568328900975149056?s=20&t=YFZpYMK3xthfkK4kULAa-Q https://twitter.com/indecisivescout/status/1567578470581927937?s=20&t=YFZpYMK3xthfkK4kULAa-Q Happy Landfill fucked around with this message at 21:58 on Sep 9, 2022 |

I'd say black bars for anything specific, and use your best judgement for more general thoughts. For example, I can say "Yo guys it's really good" without worrying, but would spoiler warning (actual minor spoiler, so be warned) Cows watch the sunset . And I'd fall on the side of caution for Pyrrha is a stone cold fox.

It's extremely good so far. The big what's going on question is obvious almost instantly if that is worrying anyone spoiler wise 120 pages in It's a new and very adorable personality in harrows body, with Pyrrha dve in lyctor Gideon's body and Camilla/sexpal all hanging out in a decaying city while God talks to harrow in dreams about the events leading up to the resurrection

Guys I'm chomping at the bit  Also, beware browsing tumblr tags, user rosencraz-does-things has been posting super spoilery art for months now. Like, art depicting big reveals with tags mocking people for being upset about Spoilers for a book that most people aren't able to read yet. It's a shame, their art is pretty nice but if that's how they're going be (and able to get ARCs) it might be worth it to block them.

Surely "bags" is a word everybody knows, or maybe I just read too much E. Nesbit. Anyway, a local chain broke street date so I have it, the book is in my hands, and now I must withdraw from the world until I have consumed the Corpus.

Big question is what the gently caress was going on between Ianthe and Gideon, why do they have friendship bracelets.
