- that's BS!!!! and soooo unfair....
To many stores were releasing movies, books and other release date material before it became available so it made it to where the laws are all strict. There are some stores that can no longer get new release stuff for the release date due to it. they get it about a week or 2 later. | |

| To be fair, Canada usually has to wait longer for things. A good example is the iPhone. We didn't get those until MONTHS after the US did. And we often don't have the same products you have in the US either.
I can comment on the book. I finished it today. What a wild ride! Twists, galore! I loved it! I don't want to wait for the next one! How much longer til Spirit Bound?!? | |

| I'll only discuss (and better I do it in PMs) stuff if you're absolutely, positively, definitely sure you want spoilers. I would personally not want to spoil. But like I said, if you're sure, shoot me a PM and I'll tell you what you want to know. | |

Australia rarely gets things released at the same time as the US either. I'm glad you enjoyed the book. Not long until the rest of us get it. | |

Yeah... that's really illegal. I'm sure Richelle Mead would not appreciate that at all. | |

| Getting the book early is soo legal,right??... Its not like I'm not gonna buy it. Offcourse we all will.And given my geographical location,I'm sure RM wont mind. Whatever,I just thought that someone around here might understand how hard it is for people like me,who live in the middle of nowhere,to get new books.I think my country will get Blood promise around next year and I'm sure someone wont spoil it for me until then. | |

| I wouldn't scan any pages. That's just not right. That and I don't have a scanner to hook up to this laptop.
What about ordering it from Amazon.com? Perhaps from an American site they'll ship it out on American release date? | |

| Sorry. It wasn't exactly like you said where you lived or that you were incapable of getting the book you know. And you never said anything about actually buying the book. So to me it just sounded like another one of the million people I've seen on the internet looking for an easy way to get the book for free instead of legally buying it and supporting Richelle's hard work. I just really hate e-pirates, especially when it comes to books because it hurts authors like nobody's business. You could try emailing the University bookstore that sells Richelle's books. They might ship it out to you. Plus you could request a signed copy. More about that HEREhttp://www4.bookstore.washington.edu/_trade/ShowTitleUBS.taf?ActionArg=Title&ISBN=9781595141989&SKU=&sdb=ALLOr try a different American bookstore. I think Barnes and Noble might work for you. http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Blood-Promise/Richelle-Mead/e/9781595141989/?itm=1Anyway, I hope you're able to get the book (the legal way). | |

| The book was awesome. Some of it seemed to go on for a bit longer than was really necessary, and there was a small sub-plot that didn't really need to be there, but was good to keep you occupied while the other half of the story seemed to continue in the same way for quite a few chapters. Many twists and turns. The ending was my favourite part though. ********SPOILERS***************** - Spoiler:
For anyone who must know, Dimitri doesn't die. It seems like he did, but then you find out later that Rose missed his heart. I knew he didn't die, though, because I read the last page, and it said that she must go out and actually kill him this time. Rose has also found out that if a strigoi touches an object charmed with spirit, then they return to a semi-normal state. Victor Dashkov's half-brother, as we find out near the end, claims to have actually returned a strigoi back to its original state, as he is a spirit user as well. Just thought you might want to know.

| Oh, and there is no way I'm gonna scan anything. That is not only illegal, but seems morally wrong to me. Sorry! Hope you find a way of getting the book! | |

| Do you think maybe you could edit your post with the spoiler by using the spoiler tags? I'd really appreciate that. And maybe refrain from posting any other spoilers until the book comes out, since you guys got the book ridiculously early? No one will even be able to discuss it with you until then anyway. And most people don't want the book spoiled before they even get a chance to read it. | |

| Okay. Sorry dimkaluv! I just figured out how to do the spoiler tags. I'll do that from now on. Oh, and anyone who lives in Canada such as ballroomdancer13 can discuss it with me. (Don't take that the wrong way, I'm not saying that to be rude, just pointing it out.) | |

| Cool. See, that's one thing us Canadians don't get that the people from the US do.You guys get her on tour, so you can get your books signed. We can't get that, but I guess it coming out early makes up for that. | |
