dude! *_______*
Jul. 16th, 2005 05:12 pmI got the book in my hot little hands last night, after meaning (and failing) to stand the glut of people at the B&N midnight book party. Me &
addictedkitten just went to the Virgin Records across Union Square and got it with no muss, no fuss (though wahhhh, no
blacksatinrose). It was bloody awesome. No one was there except the cashiers with the stacks of books <3<3<3<3 We RULE.
I read the first 5 chapters before I went to sleep, and man, I love the book. So much. So much better than any fanfic in recent memory. Oh man oh man. I don't wanna rush it, though. I wanna enjoy and possibly even stretch it out. Yesh. I'm keeping a paper doodle/commentary thing I might post though :D
I dunno, I really don't feel like discussing it on lj yet. I don't want to share. :P The book is mine right now, and you know-- on some level I just don't want to know what anyone else thinks about it. At all. Other people's excitement is likely to just... put me off at the moment. I don't wanna be drawn into any sort of favoritism/theorizing. I just wanna -read- at the most comfortable possible pace, then think. Anyway... it's all good.
But.... I do wanna meet fandom people in NYC and chat in person after I'm done, and I know
addictedkitten does too, so-- preliminary poll before I post at
hp_newyork sometime soon :>
