So far, you've done it!
We're going to have a subforum for Dead Until Dark just as we have for the other Book Klubs. When we get it set up, we'll have an announcement and you can post there so that Robin knows how much refreshments she'll need. Bloody Marys, anyone?

I can't wait. I bought this book months ago. Then the book club was announced so I put off reading it. I've read the entire Stephanie Plum series while waiting. I'm wishing my life away...come on 21st.

Wishit I could get a sample! Not particularly a vampire reader, but then i tried to read Anne Rice's books and never could get into them, they were "dumb" - is this any better? Worth paying for it?  I have so many free books I almost hate to pay for one LOL

I think I will try to join this one. I am working on finishing The Reincarnationist. So, I should be free for this one.
Now, I must make plans on how to keep Jim busy with DTB's until we are finished. Problem is, he reads so fast.

I got a sample of the book awhile ago - just checked and they are still available. I've only read the sample, but it looks good to me...

vg, samples do not run out. Anju can not receive samples as she does not live in a Whispernet area. You can't download samples to your computer for usb delivery to Kindle.

I have so many free books I almost hate to pay for one LOL In a different thread, someone just emailed a sample to her mother on the same account. I think Leslie is testing to see if you can email one to someone not on the same account. Maybe we can get a sample to you.
