insideofclouds Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I wake up to find even more people are getting the book!?!?!? I'm happy for the ladies who have acquired it but COME ON this is ridiculous!! I feel so cheated, this is the first time I wait for a book so religiously and then I get f***** over! I'm definitely emailing penguin and being a b**** about it. Since I'm in college and refuse to pay $200 for a textbook I usually get the ebook online for free (don't judge me I'm broke) I could've easily done that for this book but SD deserves her royalties and I will support a series I truly care about. I hate publishers they have f***** college students over with ridiculous textbook prices, you would think something so simple as a book release would go off smoothly but no, I'm . Ill sit here and wait for the donkey that's delivering my book to arrive. I truly apologize about the rant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to set my alarm for 00:05 but am sure I'll be awake before then waiting for it. iBooks better have no problems aswell as audible don't want huge downloading problems on Tuesday aka Gideon cross day !

jennpenn926 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Ladies I know I said I would stay off until the 7th but I keep recieving emails and I feel so bad for those that haven't got a copy yet. I am so excited that I recieved an early copy but I know it wasn't fair so I went ahead emailed Penquin and complained on your behalf. Also (USA) ladies if you have a Sam's Club warehouse or Costco by your house try them. Ladies in Europe I wish I could be better help for you.

Just a little cheesed off. It's not your fault. If I could get one I would. Please don't feel bad. Just over two thirds have the book now, radio blackout is the way to go. 30 hours to go! Thank you for emailing Penquin , we have too. made me feel a bit better. Is it good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really pleased our ladies managed to get a copy, but seriously p*ssed because where I live stores are playing by the rules. I think our donkey is going via the moon!!  No apologies necessary Inside. It is extremely frustrating to have so many people have this book yet some stores are holding fast on the embargo. Penguin should have just uploaded to all e-readers at this point, it's such bs. I'm happy for the ladies that have it and are enjoying it, I certainly don't begrudge them their Gideon time, but to make such a huge deal over all books being released the same day and that is why we postponed the release date is such nonsense. Of course I am reading the rest of this series, but when I see another series offered by Penguin I will surely think twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
