So, today I went to work with Sam, so that I could have access to internet. And this morning, on the way, Sam had to go get cups and lids at a "sister cafe" because his cafe had run out of them. The "sister cafe" happened to be in a bookstore, and while I was bumming around, I discovered something wonderous! AUDREY NIFFENEGGER'S NEW BOOK IS OUT. And Sam bought it for me!!
I am reminding myself that half the reason The Time Traveler's Wife is my favorite book is that it was the perfect love story, and because I don't imagine this one is a love story as well (I think it's supposed to be a ghost story set in London?), I will probably not love it AS MUCH, but I will hopefully still love it a lot. The first line of the summary, which I read before I realized that the summary would give things away that I didn't want to know, said something about a pair of twentysomethings, so that bodes well for me. I'm stoked.
I am also stoked about read-ins! Can we build a fort?! And bring our stuffed animals (Sam managed to get me a fuckin' awesome stuffed ELEPHANT from the claw machine at our local diner which I now sleep with every night)? And make delicious food to go with our books? It can be a potluck read-in! Perfect!
