May. 7th, 2008 05:01 pmOh dear, I am SUCH A GEEK.
...and as unashamed of as it could possibly get. Ever. I knew it was coming out - it got a glowing review on the newspaper, and as I wandered in the bookshop today (looking around for gifts for mom, it's Mother's Day here next
--but they only had the Italian translation. Which means that I ordered the original. :P
(I know I could have got it off Amazon, but... well, I was there already, and it takes months for their stuff to arrive anyway. :P What I get off amazon.com, at least. I guess it's the ocean-crossing.)
Still. HAPPY! I don't know when it'll arrive, I'm afraid around the beginning of June, but. Aw. Happy.
(And geeky. Oh yes I'm geeky all right.)

I'm hitting up my local Chapters today to pick up a Star Wars book that's not supposed to be released for another week (but there's no strict on-sale date, I checked, and I would know since I WORK there). Might have to give that one a look see too!

It will probably end up covering the book cost. ;D)
