We finally have a sunny weekend in Seattle! YAY!
Friday at MPOW (my place of work) we opened the boxes on two of the books coming out on Tuesday, June 4. Libraries do get “hot” books a few days ahead, so that we have time to get them ready to give to the waiting public on the publisher laydown date.
Notice I didn’t say shelve. Usually these titles don’t see a shelf for months.
Friday we received both Sylvia Day’s Entwined with You and Nalini Singh’s Heart of Obsidian. I’m looking forward to reading both of them, but…I’ll buy my own copy of Heart of Obsidian. I’m perfectly content to wait for my name to come up on the hold list for Entwined with You. I can wait a month or more to read more Crossfire angst. I want to know about Kaleb now!

Packages at MPOW do feel like Xmas, although some days we have an embarrassment of riches. It is lovely to see the new books every day, even if sometimes I see them by the hundred-weight!
