Well, it depends on whether or not I’ve been on receiving duty…

But in public, definitely not.

Oy. What book?

That was my guess! It's amazing how devoted those readers are!

And yes, they are!

Now I've gotta know -- what book?

Yay for a store that knows the difference between release date and strict-on-sale date!

Buddy Dog in Framingham. And I can't remember where Dina got Rory, but I'll ask--I think that was the second time she adopted from there, so an endorsement. (Bookstore visits will be a must, yes?)

I drive down Felton (and Charles) a lot, and… yeah.

Must ask—Waltham or Brandeis stop? (I live by the latter and can picture multiple contenders…)

Out of curiosity (I'm so far behind in my own order tracking...) is this first received date, or order complete?

(Let us not discuss the Ingram order I checked on today, sent 11/28 with an estimated packing date of 12/12...)

Bio on the way! portersquarebooks.com/book/9781982...

He, at least, didn't subject the rest of us to knowing about it. (Of course, if he'd had his way we wouldn't have known about the famous one either, and his time as governor might have ended differently.)

Additional. Earlier, I think, though having read that piece once I'm not going back to check dates. (The things I will do to avoid working on a book review, though...)
