Would you believe...

...that I don't have one single review up at Borders, OR Barnes & Noble. I begged, I pleaded, I sent out individual Emails and made people promise to leave me a review at either Borders or Barnes & Noble. And still I have none.

*sniff sniff*

This books stuff is really important to me, you know?
Because it's probably the most important thing I'll do in life.

But there is good news:

I've got a half a mind to go to Best Buy and buy The Mist.
Damn, that was a good movie.

Are you not allowed to review yourself?

*whines* But I haven't read it yet! I'll review it when I do, though. Promise!

I suppose you're allowed to, but I doubt that me reviewing my own book would hold much sway.

By the time it comes out, I will need reviews on Amazon.

I haven't even *received* my copy yet! When I read it, I will review!

I would love to leave a review...but I really need to read it first, and I haven't recieved my copy yet. Call me crazy, but I would rather be honest than just make up some random stuffs.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Fair enough!

There are a bunch of people though, who have read it and haven't left a review yet.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
That's cool. My rant is aimed at those people who have already read it.

Book Review:

A Stabbing for Sadie, by Wednesday Lee Friday

Life on the frontier was hard for Sadie, a plucky girl who loved the outdoors, but grew tired of the chores, and especially the loneliness of Kansas in the 1850's. Sadie longed for a special friend, but the nearest neighbor was five miles away. Then one day, that nearest neighbor, Farmer Brown was found stabbed to death in his sod houses, with "for Sadie" carved into his chest. Could the perpetrator be the one special friend Sadie hopes to find? How many more hardy pioneers must die before Sadie meets her true love?

Find out in this endearing coming-of-age tale of love in the Old West, "A Stabbing For Sadie," destined to be a favorite among young readers: Tab Books, $0.75.

Uh, maybe I need to read more than a title before I write a review.

Well played, old chap.

You can, of course, read it early if you want. I'll send you a pdf. Just ask if you like.

Naw, I'll wait until it comes out in hard copy.

Oh okay good...I was like ummmm I am waiting patiently.... I just need the book.... *shifty eyes*

I have an Amazon Prime account - that might be the easiest route for me to go. I will review it though :-)

[identity profile] maxverbosity.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
Helps if I sign in first - ignore the anonymous one. It was me. LOL

Anyway, I saw that you would be on Amazon too - I have a Prime account there, so that would be the easiest place for me to put a review :-)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
It's not on Amazon just yet. I don't think it will be on Amazon until the official release next month.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Cool, thanks man.

See above comment.

I'm 'onna order one next pay period. I'll review it once I read it. PROMISE :)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Sweet. If you order it from www.stonegarden.net I'll sign it for you. I promised my publisher I'd sign all the preorders and send them out myself.

Oh shit. I forgot to do that. I'm on it tonight.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2008-03-26 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, man.
I know you're a busy guy.

[identity profile] madush69.livejournal.com 2008-03-27 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Busy goofing off. ;-)
