I'll get 'em all, hopefully. But I'm just crazy like that. My worry getting them through Waterstones is the shipping. Their packaging is usually horrible.

I can confirm WH Smith Purple version will have all 4 variant endpaper designs....
Oh and I can also confirm 100% NO UK Signed Limited of this book (no surprise really, but its good to know for sure)
Excellent. So only 9 variants to purchase this time.
Thanks for the update, Simon!

Has anyone heard anything about a possible tour or appearances?
No. It's not looking good. King might do some small "pop-up" signing, but no official multi-city tour.Quote:

I think part of the sleeping beauties tour was so that OWEN could experience a crazy, full blown book tour. Stated by Marcia on the KING website that he had no tour planned for THE INSTITUTE. :(Quote:

Is it spoilery?
"ish" -- I don't think I reveal much of substance, but if you're going to read the book anyway, you might want to hold off.

Yeah, I kind of want to go in as blind as possible (aside from the initial synopsis), so I guess I'll hold off. I tend to read reviews of books and movies after I read and see them now rather than before.Quote:
