20 hours till THE END! This says something different to this. There both on the same day though. They're both based on your computer clock, but LemonySnicket.com is counting down to midnight because that's the official release time in the U.S., whereas UE.com is counting down to 3pm because that's the official release time in the U.K.

Yay. Release day. (It is half past midnight here in the UK now). Although I am not getting The End until Saturday or even Monday. I decided to order it from Amazon because I had trouble getting hold of The Grim Grotto, The Penultimate Peril and The Beatrice Letters. In fact TBL is still not available in any of the local bookshops.

Your poor soul! That's so unfair. I won't get it until after school tomorrow which is like 2:15. And then I have to march in a football game at 5:30 so I won't have much time to read it. *sigh* [shadow=orange,left,300][glow=orange,2,300]TWO AND A HALF HOURS![/glow][/shadow]Though honestly, will any bookstore be open at midnight to sell the end? Certainly none close to me.

Gah! I can't buy it because someone stole my purse as I'm sure you all know by now! I also have to work tomorrow from 2:00-10:00 so I can't go to the B&N party! Grr... but my mom is pre-ordering it for me, and getting it sent to my apartment, so hopefully it'll will come soon!!!

Female parental unit is picking it up from Borders for me if the riot isn't awful.
Aim: Read it all from 5pm, when female parental unit gets home, to midday Saturday when I attend the Lemony Snicket event at the Cheltenam Festival of Literature.

I don't want to wait until tonight to get the book. Grrr.
I think I need to leave 667 right now and not come back until I've finished the book. Otherwise I'll spoil myself completely.

I have it and not read a thing. Oh how woeful it is that the price was of more expence than that of another unit of books.

I guess the countdown is done. The book is here. It's been fun, everybody. Now go read!
