One of the perks of being a librarian

[cardinalskate]

We got the Bloggess's new book in Friday! And it doesn't come out until May 1! And I get to read it already!

Neener Neener!! ;)

I'd be more interested in JK Rowling's new book. The list is already a bajillion people long at our libraries! It'd be cool to get an early read before the masses get their grubby hands on them! Enjoy it!

Lucky! I was thrilled last week when I found a book at the library that had just been released that same day. It would be so fun to get them early!

[*Celeste*]

amazon is saying that you can get it tomorrow. i was bummed i have a long car trip tomorrow and thought it would be a fun audiobook!

[pewtertm]

LOL that is one of the things I miss about being a librarian...that and getting my hands on a new copy of Booklist (which allowed me to reserve things well in advance of the public LOL)

[cardinalskate]

Huh. I just checked Amazon and it said May 1. Cause I was gonna buy the Kindle version.

ETA: Darn. I'm not as lucky as I thought. Celeste is right...April 17. Hmph. :D

[*Celeste*]

still lucky i'd like the audiobook today! :)

WOOOHOOOO!!!!!

I get it tomorrow because I pre-ordered it for my Kindle. Can't wait! I haven't started anything else the past couple of days because I knew I would want to delve right into it!!

My hubby works for a video company and I kinda feel the same way about the we get early videos early!!! :D :D

[cardinalskate]

Yeah, we get a lot of videos early, too, but usually just the week before they release.

I didn't know JK Rowling had a new book. Have I been living under a rock? Who is the target audience?

[cardinalskate]

It's releasing in September. Here's (http://www.amazon.com/The-Casual-Vacancy-J-K-Rowling/dp/0316228532/ref=sr_tr_sr_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1334606687&sr=1-1) the Amazon page. Adult book. Sounds interesting, for sure.
