I've been hibernating with ear plugs since word of the leak first came. I'm
bound and determined to read the book with absolutely no advance knowledge
of what's going to happen.

Nothing is spoiled for me!

Happy reading, all!

Wise course. The local news even had pictures of it, to my horror. I

suspect this is media's revenge. Word is that the perpertrator has

left enough inadvertent evidence to be traced from the serial number

in every picture.
