"Please note: You must present a Barnes & Noble or BN.COM receipt for the featured book to enter the signing line. Copies will also be available on site the day of the event. We will begin distributing line passes at 5:00 pm on August 1, 2011."
Depending upon what folks are doing at Gordon B's, I am planning to try to get there at least an hour early to get my book and get in the line for passes (~4pm)...will get their earlier if the group determines a different schedule...
Squeeee!

Wow. I'll have to see if this rule holds for the other B&N signings, too...

Looks like I'm cancelling my Kindle order (and checking to see if the JB Store has a link to B&N.com).

Okay, now I'm getting confuzed...
If we need to buy a B&N copy of the book to get into the signing line, will they stop us from asking him to sign anything else? I live almost 40 miles from the nearest B&N... Require a minimum purchase of SOMETHING, that I could understand, but I've gotten burned by online shipping before (got First Lord's Fury 2 days late) and don't want to go through that on a new release, ESPECIALLY something we're all drooling over like Ghost Story... Jim Butcher's books are the first I've ever bothered to go out and purchase for myself on release day. (the other Harry's last book was for my wife, not me, honest...)
Oh, before I forget:
Will there be a Q&A session? If there is a Q&A will it be open to the public?
[sarcasm] Will the Q&A session require both a book purchase and the purchase of a venti mocha in their cafe? [/sarcasm]
Okay, now that I've vented my spleen all over the forum... Deep breath... Sorry about that...
I was thinking of getting a second copy (as a gift) but would they let me get BOTH signed? One purchased at B&N and one purchased somewhere else, ie. without B&N receipt? I've also got a copy of Our World signed by Priscellie, I wanted to get Jim's signature on that too... (I know, 3 item limit. I wouldn't ask him to sign more than that anyway...)
Oh, did anyone else notice that Ghost Story already has a 4.5 Star rating and 109 reviews?
Toe-mas:
okay, I've calmed down a little. Sorry about that.
I've decided its a $15 ticket to get in to the signing line, and they give me a free copy of the book... Okay.

i already pre-ordered mine. that kinda sucks. but maybe i'll buy another copy and get it signed for sumo.
