I was going to try and reply "thank you" to all of you who wished me a happy birthday or whatnot on my previous entry, but there's such a lot of you and I am lazy. So: Thank you! :D

And ... arg! ... the Borders I go to has sent me a 15% off coupon for my birthday and yet does not have Saiyuki Reload 6 or the light novel Chain Mail: Addicted to You, by Hiroshi Ishizaki, whose English adaptation is by [livejournal.com profile] rachelmanija.* Whine!





* So all of you rush out and buy it.

Happy birthday!

I don't think Chain Mail is due out till Jan 9. I haven't seen it anywhere.

[livejournal.com profile] coffeeandink's got it, and release dates are viewed as things that happen to other people by most big box bookstores, who put 'em on the shelves as soon as they've got 'em. It tends, from my observations, to go in waves from East to West across the US, presumably as the distributors' trucks deliver them. Which I find a bit odd, as I think most of them tend to be printed in Asia, and thus should arrive on the West Coast first.

Thank you!
