Captive Prince!!!

1) Guys, Captive Prince. Captive Prince, guys.

2) Has anyone bought the paperback novels? I wanted to, because the maps and covers look pretty, but for some reason never did. I have no idea whether the Penguin editions will use her covers etc, so maybe I should buy them while I can.

3) [personal profile] coffeeandink said maybe the publishers are hoping for another Fifty Shades. It would be so awesomesauce if the book was popular. And gay romance novels become more mainstream.

4) I'm wondering how much they'll edit?

5) Book 3, you guys. Guys, book 3.

6) Once on my way to Portland to see my brother, I'd just gotten off the bus, and checked my ipad. I saw there was an update of Captive Prince. I walked to the rental place, rented a car (Okay, I know, environment, but the train was booked for the time I needed it and renting a car and driving it to Portland is actually cheaper than taking a train there), got in the car, and then drove to a parking lot. And then proceeded to read the update before starting my drive because I JUST COULD NOT WAIT.

6) In other news, I think Kindle Worlds is hilarious.

I failed out of Captive Prince pretty much directly upon picking a few sections at random and being scared off by depictions of a slave holding society. I'm basically allergic to slave fic, but everyone seems to like this A LOT, so I guess I'm willing to be convinced. I'll wait for the books I guess.

I just bought the books, and it looks like they're now not available from Amazon (just from 3rd party sellers). The Kindle versions are still up for now, which would be the least expensive way to get the current version before Penguin's editors have their wicked way with it (or not wicked. I don't have anything against Penguin).

Depending on what she says about them (and how much I want to have a full matching set of covers), I may wind up buying the Penguin versions later.
