Hmmm, I stopped reading after "Turn Coat" when I inadvertently learned how the next book ("Changes"?) ended. You guys are tempting me to pick it up again.
I'm listening to Changes right now (a bit more than halfway done). Even if you know how it ends, in most cases, the journey is more fun. You miss all the great jokes and references!

I checked my library this morning and they added copies, which moved me almost to the top of the wait list. I should be reading Skin Game soon!

You're in for the biggest treat since Dead Beat and Changes and in my opinion Skin Game beats them both for best-of-series.

Wow. That's mighty high praise, and coming from you, I believe it! Soooo looking forward to starting it. Since there are always a few people that don't claim their holds within the 72hr period, I might have it as soon as Monday.

Cool Hardcover edition

So I will read it from the library and buy it later, because I must have a complete collection.

Someday I plan to buy the whole series in the Roc Hardcover editions. Right now I only have Ghost Story in hardcover.

My analogy was the kindle to the Christmas stocking. Empty the night before and a nice wee addition the next morning.
Perhaps Amazon should market kindle stuffers at Christmas, or maybe they do.

Yep, I got it the first time. The analogy I hadn't considered was the one about a hot temperature Christmas in Australia.

Finished Changes this morning (I just could not stay awake for that last 1.5 hours last night). SUCH an exciting, intense book!
