So this evening was the release party at Borderlands Books for Seanan McGuire's latest and 7th addition to the October Daye series, Chimes at Midnight, which is glorious and has hitting and also many lovely and occasionally bloody and horrible things. You all should pick up the series; I particularly recommend it to my chatfish on the strength of several things including the fact that Toby spends 14 years before the start of the series as a koi in a San Francisco pond. It's amazing. FISH.
( I showed up early and read the book while I was waiting. Part of the book is set in the bookstore that I was in while reading it. )
( I had a lot of feelings, and reading in a cafe is never the most quiet venue. )
( Seanan's mom is awesome, Seanan is awesome, Seanan's writing is awesome, and Seanan's fans are awesome. THE WORLD IS AWESOME. )
( The Q&A sessions are not to be missed. Again, there are rules invented specifically for me. Rabbit pie, anyone? )
( Options, options )
( Hungry velociraptor who? )
( And now, the weather. )
( You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. )
Later, I intend to post my reactions to the book in the by-now-customary format, but that can wait until well after I've slept. I had amazing fun as always.
