I am getting far to excited. There's 3 days to go so I've finally made The List, the list of people who will be borrowing CoK when I have finished. While I'm sure this has been discussed many a time, I'm curious to know if anyone else has such a list and/or what it looks like.

My list looks something like this:

1) I read it. Twice.
2) My mother reads it once.
3) It travels across town to my Bestie.
4) Bestie's two older sisters & possibly little brother read it.
5) It comes back, I read it again and then pass it to my older brother. (Who will take about 3 months to read it.)
6) I read it aloud to Little Brother.
7) I start looking for anyone else who has yet to read MWT's gift to humanity and proceed to convert them convince them to read the series.
8) Repeat.

How 'bout you all?

Pretty much what mine looks like too.

I'll attempt to tell a few of my friends about it, but then will feel bad for spoiling things, so I'll mostly just have to squee on my own.

Awww, you guys! You're so sweet alineadrklrdsis! I like "mwt's gift to humanity". Did you put that in the contest as a name for the series?

And Em! HAHAHAHAHA!! I second this list!

P.S. I just bought 3 copies right off the bat. One I will give to my out-of-family convert, one I will give to Elf, and one I will read until the pages are transparent.

Yeah, sounds like you need 2 copies. Make your mom pay for one. :)

Or make your friends buy one.
Come on, support your not-so-local awesome author!

I've got this weird ownership thing where I want other people to read the book, but I don't like lending my book to them, because...well...I miss my books when they're away. Very selfish and completely idiotic, but I'm weird like that. So I don't know if I'll be lending my CoK to anyone. I'm glad you're willing to lend your copy to people.
