May try to get after this next week, but also anticipating The Ones That Got Away, so it would bring me to three SGJs in a month. I don't ever binge an author, so still trying to decide my participation on this one. I would have loved a discussion on Del Rio or TOTGA.
Yes, just read Del Rio. Maybe we should switch to that, since Del Rio and TOTGA are just coming out.

I have like 8 books to read by the end of the year, Ledfeather may not make the cut, just read ICFDR which was awesome, and I'll certainly read his shorts, TOTGA. Just no time. Or, I'll pick up Ledfeather and read it in a day.

I bought this book at AWP earlier this year and had Mr. Jones sign it as he was leaving Leela's. Here's what he wrote:"Paul -
Possibly my favorite ending I have published.
Stephen Graham Jones
4-9-10
Denver"
That's got me excited.
I've read SGJ's short stories here and there, but never one of his novels. I'm really looking forward to this one.
I'm on p.15, and liking it so far.
Wait till the scene with the kid throwing rocks in the air.
