Well..he's got to be in a new suit..one for Giglia..i think..right? I'm just assuming this. Or he could be something else...like Cesare was the night...wut was Georgia? I dont remember at all.
I think there should be a list of all the corteo cards and what they signify....

Hear, Hear! I'm very curious about those cards, then again I'm curious about million things in Talia so... But espacially the cards and the...the...language of the needlepoint ...are these the right words...?

My family is going Colorado to go skiing over spring break and we leave at seven in the morning. So if I ordered it it wouldn't come 'til i was on vaction, and then i'd have to wait a week, but seeing as that most of the towns we stop in (we're driving) are very very small there's no saying if they'll have them either. What a dilema.

yea i'm not going to order online either. why wait for it to ship? besides going to the bookstore is a joy on its own. i like the book store. i'm sure i wont be able to put the book down either. homework would have to wait.

I just thought of something...in every book there has been someone who translated...luciano and falco so far. anyone think someone will this time? It suddenly occurred to me...and i dont think it'll be Sky cus he wouldnt leave his mom...unless he had to i suppose....i think it'll be his mom cus she's sick and the last time it was someone from talia translated..so someone from sky's world should this time...thats my theory anyhow

Publication dates:
The UK one is, as you know, 7th March. I am discussing doing some public signings with Bloomsbury in various UK locations, so i hope some of you will come.
Amazon.com says that the pub date is May 13th in the US, but they also say 250 pages, which is seriously underestimated (by half). It will be a problem if the English fans read the book and want to talk about it before the others get the chance.
Perhaps you could put a spoiler warning? Of course if you have a friendly credit-card-wielding adult to hand, you can order it off Amazon.co.uk and pay for shipping if you are outside the UK. Depends how much you want it, I suppose....
Welcome new Newbies. And Rachele, I know it's on another thread, but I am already envious of your trip to Florence. I shall be there in January and in April. When will you?
Mary

If there is a signing near me, I certainly would try and attend!
Spolier warnings do work, but they also get annoying, and sometimes people forget or simply don't read them. Maybe there could be one forum just for City of Flowers until it is released in America? That means that you only can read discussion on COF if you really want to.

Maybe we can have a whole thread just for spoilers and then its up to the ones who didnt get to read the book yet to resist the temptation. Oh gee.

I dont live in Canada I live in the U.S. but I was born in Toronto and so I have Canadian citizenship. But at the same time I also recieved US citizenship when i was 6 so i'm both. *sigh* March is tooo far away. Lucky Rhiannon to be Mary's daughter and have all these perks with it, including being able to read the third book 4 months before I'll do!

I know *sigh* ....so on a happier note (not really but it makes me feel better) there are only 4 more months to go....(happier only cus I've been waiting for COF since 2 days after i got COS..which was quite close to when it came out) Anyone find out anything else good about COF? or got any good suspicions?
