Penumbra Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 When you get more stressed over the fact that Oathbringer shipmentd have been delayed to your book store, than the fact that you're several weeks late on your thesis work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesh Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) The cover is slightly dirty. The corners slightly bent. The spine looks like the book was opened by someone who doesn't care about the apperence of books. It's what I get for ordering online. I could return it, and get another copy, but I can't wait that long... But I also want to get a really nice book. Suggestions?

Truthweaver Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 You know you're a Sanderfan when you see a book called The Blackthorn Key by an author with the last name of Sands, and immediately get suspicious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I see it, your options include the following: 1) Returning it and reading the ebook. 2) Reading it, then returning afterward. 3) Order a new copy, reading from the old one. When the new one arrives, send back the old. Hope it works out! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them is going to try to find a copy at Deseret Book, and if she can, she'll bring it when she comes, and I'll pay her back. If it doesn't work, I'm definitely doing 3. If they do still have a copy, I'd read some other books while waiting (SoS) and return OB as soon as I hear she can find a copy. *sigh* You know you are a Sanderfan when this happens. Or you know you are way to OCD when it comes to books when this happens. (It's literally the only thing I'm OCD about). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podman Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) When you win 1st place in the 140 something questions long Cosmere Marathon quiz at the signing. ‘Nough said. Spoiler Disclaimer: Not ‘nough said. You know for sure you’re a Sanderfan when this makes you incredibly filled with joy and pride. Then you realize you got a couple stupid ones wrong and decide to do the 140 something question long quiz again to fix those. Spoiler Then you feel so stupid that you kept calling Wayne a Pulser instead of a Slider. Why, you stupid finger, why?

Tesh Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I just got a new copy of OB. (The first one I got was pretty beat up). It's in almost perfect condition. The only annoying thing is that the ink inside of the dust jacket is rubbing off a little on the cover. It doesn't effect the map itself, but I do wish they had chosen to put the map on the cover that wasn't yellow... But I'm keeping this one, and I'm hopefully going to start reading it today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
