 I swear you are too hillarious! I won't mention the unmentionables....Â

 It is interesting. Each person has a very different way of absorbing material and some people find it very easy to read off of computer screens while others find it easier to have a physical, tangible object to read from (like a book). It all goes back to what type of learners adults are...The latest theory is that there are five different types of adult learners.Â

 Skip the marshmallows and graham crackers I say and head straight for the chocolate!Â

 That's ok! You will have the night to rest and relax for Friday morning. You will be bright eyed and bushy tailed! The rest of us will be looking for eye drops to rehydrate our eye balls in attempts to prevent our eye balls from shrivelling up and falling out of our heads.Â

 Hi Julie, I am savouring the book....that and a nice big box of chocolates. Now who wouldn't like a little Gideon with chocolate after all?

 I find it interesting. I find it so much more difficult to read off of a computer screen for an extended period of time. I also find that I get tired far more easily. I don't know if there is something to it, but maybe I like having a book near me so just in case I fall asleep then I can still absorb the written material by osmosis....ok, now I am kidding.Â

 I prefer a book too. I think that there is something almost comforting about it. You can go back and look for a specific page or passage. You can bookmark a page, etc.... I am a tangible kind of girl. I want to be able o hold it in my hands. Do you know what I mean?Â

 I read like a turtle so I can't figure out how everyone has read the book so quickly...sigh! Oh, well...I will be ready by Friday.Â

Hi Julie, I swear the must be pharmacies all around the world that have sold out on eye drops! Either that or there are going to be a lot of ladies going off to see their family eye doctors for dried, shrivelled eye balls! Ok, ok, I am just kidding....but not by much...I suspect....

Ahh, now I understand. I am glad that there are only two more days until Friday (well technically one full day and one night). Â

Hi Julie, Try not to worry too much. Hopefully the donkey has been well fed and watered. He will make the delivery soon. I am surprised that you read the book so quickly. I am actually surprised that everyone seems to have read the book very quickly.

You are too hillarious! Which village do you live in? London? Essex?   Just remember to be nice to the donkey; he will be the one delivering the next book and the book after that....provided he survives all the excess weight from all the book deliveries he has had to make.Â

How on earth do you sleep? Make sure that you eat at least. You will need your strength for Friday morning!Â

Hi Sheens263, I can hardly wait for Friday, but more importantly, I can hardly wait until the final book has been written and I have it in my hands. Then we will all finally have the answers!Â

Hi MrsCrossfire, My lips are sealed until Friday.

Hi Everyone, I posted this in another forum, but I wante dot make sure that everyone gets the information if they need it or would like to do something about the fact that some of the stores released Sylvia's book early (there are phone numbers listed for anyone who might like to pick up a phone and voice their complaint). I just called Penguin Publishers in Canada to complain about the early release dates from some of the retailers. The representative from Penguin said that this was the first that she had heard of this problem. I find that incredibly difficult to believe. I also mentioned to her about the Sylvia Day Community site and I could have sworn that I heard crickets on the other side of the line. The lady had no idea what I was talking about.  If there are emails being sent, I don't think that those emails are going to the right places. So with that in mind I looked up the Penguin Publishers numbers and if anyone would like they can call one of the 800 numbers in either Canada or the US.  For all the other ladies in Europe, Penguin Publishers can be found in their local phone directories (If someone needs help, just let me know and I will figure out a way to get the number for you). Here are the numbers:  1. Penguin Publishers Canada     (800)399-6858  2. Penguin Publishers USA     (800)526-0275  Again, if anyone has a problem with either of these numbers, just shoot me off an email and let me know what city and province/state that you live in and I will get you the numbers. I hope this helps. Â

I agree! Great observation!Â

Hi Kirsten, I don't know if Sylvia will have spoilers yet. She is in the middle of writing her next book and it hasn't been approved by the editors yet either, so how can she spoil something that isn't concreate? Do you know what I mean?  I think that your questions and everyone else's will be straight up fair game until the next book is sent to the presses. What do you think? What does everyone think?

Hi Sheens263, Thanks for clarify that for me. I swear I thought I was seeing things. Everytime I saw him in the media, his eyes looked either brown or almost black in colour. When you see his photos his eyes appeared quite blue. So thanks again.

Hi Sheens263, I am not sure where you are (in terms of countries) or where you were when you bought the book, but you can annonymously call the publisher (if you like) to let them know which location released the book early. I have the numbers listed for Canada and the US but if you need a specific numer, just let me know and I will help you locate it (if you like).  GiGi

 Hi Donnad, You are correct. All of the stores who released the books early will be fined but first Penguin Publishers need to know which stores (and locations) released said books. You don't have to give your name or phone number when you call Penguin Publishers. All a person needs to do is let the Publishers know which locations released the books.  I hope some of the ladies get up the courage to call and let the publishers know.Â

Hi Donnad, Thanks for taking the time to post what happened. I am sure that it must have been a lot of fun for you and the other ladies who attened. Thanks again.

Oh my word! You are too hillarious!Â

Hi Readingrrl, Actually a lot can be done. Each of the companies who released the books early can and will be given a nice heafty fine! At the end of the day, people who got their books early got them, but what I want to see happen next time around is that everyone gets their books at the same time.  The question that will remain to be seen is whether the ladies who got their books early will have the courage to stand up for their sisters who had to wait until the actual release date of June 4th. Just remember, NO ONE has to give ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION at all!! The only thing the publishers want to know is which locations released the books early...that's it.
