I've already started and even highlighted some paragraphs.  I'm so glad we're starting this Klub now.  Keeps me from charging too far ahead in Outlander. 

Betsy, when can we expect the announcement?

I'm in, but I'm going to try to finish The Stand first (have about 6000 locations left) before starting.  Hopefully I'll be caught up by Thursday.

Not too worried.  It's 24,000 locations total, and I started it two weeks ago this Saturday, so I'm actually 3/4 done. Smiley  I typically get 1,000-1,300 locations read on my lunch hour every weekday plus a little extra here and there, so shouldn't be too bad.
