Book BIN Tuesday -- Damn You, Suz Brockmann!


Look, I was trying to be nice about it. But I can't hold it in much longer.

You're messing with my schedule, woman!

See, I have deadlines. Manuscripts that need to be written. Contracts, for heaven's sake!

I don't have *time* to glom on your books right now.

But noooo. You had to write Force of Nature, didn't you? And have it published, right in the middle of one of the busiest times of my life!

And oh, dear Lord, you had to put Jules in it, didn't you? :: whimper ::

I held out for as long as I could. I got final edits done, and a round of promo for the new releases, and the new school year started. But I began running into spoilers, and I knew I couldn't wait any longer.
So I read it. In one day. And then, as soon as I finished it, I turned back to page one and started over again.

Then, after reading it twice, I had to go grab Hot Target off the shelf and read that one again, too.

So I'm giving my readers fair warning. Force of Nature is dangerous to your schedule.

But I still think you should go Buy It Now.

Yanno, Terry Pratchett did this to me last week. Two books to promote and one on deadline to finish, and he had to go bring out a new Discworld book. And I'm incapable of letting one of those sit around for half a second longer than necessary.

Jenny Crusie and Bob Mayer, you're also guilty.
