Sad Face

On the post for Thursday, August 13. It was about the celebration of reading with the Bushes and the one that cost like a $150. Well it stated that many other authors besides AJ JAcobs would be there, guess who was one of those other authors ...
no not that person try again
close but nope, not that one either ...
well if you didn't guess right, it was Sandra Brown.
Makes me sad because if I had known that both of them would of be there I would of saved up $150 to support the cause but also get to be in a room with really amazing writers. Just thought I would share my sad face ... :(

:no winks, eye twitches:

if you don't know who posted this, well tough stuff

ATTN: Ladies...!!

I just wanted to give you a heads up on the matter of actually locating this book. There seems to be some difficulty in finding this particular piece at any local bookstore. I, naturally, chose a book that (because it was the author's first work) was only printed in limited amounts across the country. I spoke with someone at Barnes & Noble, who told me that this typically happens with books by relatively 'unknown' authors.

HOWEVER, the book is available on several websites:

1. bn.com --they have several copies for around $5.50 or so.
2. half.com-- prices seem to be around $5.79 and up, as Jennifer mentioned.
3. amazon.com-- on this particular site, prices started at around $10

Sorry that this has become such a hassle. If I'd known it would be this difficult, I wouldn't have chosen this book. But I do know that'll be worth it--I promise!

I've ordered my copy from Amazon and am expecting to receive it on Monday (the 14th).

Ps. Will you all let me know when you've gotten your hands on a copy?

FB me, or email me at thedreamsofravens@gmail.com

Thanks, ladies.

Mkay, Ladies....

The name of the book I've chosen is called, John Crow's Devil by Marlon James.

(See, Mistie... I'm abiding by the "rules").

My apologies for picking something that is only, currently available in hardcover.... woops!

But I do, really hope you all pick it up and read it.

I'll also post this on FB, just so you know*
