Actually, in Norwich city centre you can stand at the entrance of one large, 2 floor Waterstones and look over the steet at another large, 2 floor Waterstones. They both stock the exact same books. I don't undestand the logic behind that.

Oh! I know that one! Also, Norwich rocks. One of my favourite places.

For a second there I thought you were looking for E/N.

An E/N on books... I wonder how an E/N thread would work here relating to books. Someone make a thread and let's see how it goes!

I'll pick that up and give it a shot. Thanks gentle goon.

Finally got caught up with this thread, was busy all week. If anyone has a problem with 2 GRRM threads, take it up with me and leave loosechanj out of it. The 2 GRRM threads is 100% my doing and if you have a problem with it, take it up with me.

Catch me at viconia@somethingawful.com or PM!

In other news, the book store down the road from me is closing, so I can't have a gander at lunch in there anymore. I'm really annoyed about that!

Also, not sure about ye, but I've been to about 5 bookstores and none of them have the SA Book Club's Book of the month "Vacation". Anyone else found that problem? Like what the hell?

Choose a better book, buddy. Sheesh. (Book shops closing makes me sad).

Heard a lot about the book and it looks quite interesting. I guess the hype that people made about it has made me curious.

I just got the kindle version. Get with the 21st century, jeez.

edit: I guess bookstores closing is my fault. sorry

I actually have that version for my sony e-reader but.. Meh. I'm really prefering paperback.

Also,I bring so many gadgets with me around the place that it's refreshing to have a book with me. I suppose I might have to settle with that version
