I'm seriously thinking of asking Frank to go back and pick me up the last few titles if he can still find 1st's.

The release date is fast approaching or so the endless email reminders from S&S inform me! I'm guessing there would have been word of a signed edition by this point if that were happening? Even the "contest" they are running is for unsigned copies.
Loads of anticipation for this novel which is due out very soon!!! Can't wait to get my hands on it!!! Also, because I'll finally get delivery of my s/l "Later" along with my UK collectible edition of this title soon after release!!! It'll be a Two-fer here in the desert for me anyway!! LOL
It's a little weird that there was no NY Times review of the upcoming book this weekend (unless I missed it). Usually every major paper reviews a new King book and gives it gushing praise regardless of merit. It's almost part of the standard marketing plan.
Maybe next weekend?
Hot tamale!!! Just about all my desired editions are "In the Mail"!!!!! Sure hope I'm not disappointed. As I've I've stated before I'm looking forward to this novel. The premise looks very promising indeed, IMHO. Of course, I'll need to interrupt my current reading schedule of re-reading some of the "classics" of mine from the past. Currently into book 2 of 7 of the "Foundation Series" with the "Dune" trilogy up next in line. I'll likely then go to some of the horror classics, i.e. "The Exorcist", "Dracula" (one of my all time favorites) and "Ghost Story" if anyone gives a crap!! lol lol
Got a notice from Amazon that my copy had been "delayed." You know things are crumbling into ruins when mega giant Amazon can't deliver the mega author Stephen King's book on time. I could even walk to an Amazon warehouse in my area.
I sadly, like always, have to drive to Indy to get a copy. Hour and a half away. No Walmart or anything within 3 counties has his books day of release. 2 weeks or more if at all.
For those who loves book covers...
The Spanish edition will be published with the same cover as the USA edition.

My standard UK and Waterstones exclusive editions Arrived from Waterstone’s today! Still in the cheap cardboard sleeves, but luckily they are relatively unscathed. Still waiting for my WH Smith version.
Agreed, Bill. I can understand that booksellers need to keep postage cost-competitive, but giving a more expensive option for collectors would be nice.

It wasn’t even a bubble envelope, it was a cardboard sleeve.
And I get that it complicates the ordering process, but it’s not like they don’t have the boxes and packing materials already for bigger orders.
