Ugly Sunday (4/26/2020)/ Book Release Week: Sing Backwards&

[username2500]

Hola folks.

It’s a pretty gray ugly Sunday here in New York. A song to go with the day www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdz6NcqHwAI


Sing Backwards and Weep is released this week! US Amazon has a Tuesday 4/28/2020 release date, Rough Trade and Amazon UK & have it listed as released Thursday 4/30/2020. Whatever of the specifics of where and when it's released, looking forward to reading!
I’ve queued up an electronic purchase, my first foray into reading a book electronically (I’d much rather turn the pages….) but these unprecedented pandemic times call for adjusting. Doubt amazon will be shipping books on time right now.

Happy reading all, enjoy the ugly Sunday wherever you are

I'm opting for my 30 day trial of audible, and listening to Mark read to me :-) I will eventually purchase the book when this crazy world settles on down

Do we have a release date for the audiobook?

Should be Tues the 28th!

My google play (Aust) says 30/4

It’s arrived. In my kindle app. On page 1. It’s just not the same as reading a physical book. Amazon sent an email, it was shipped and should arrive by 11 PM tonight. I may have it read by then. But maybe not. Woe, woe, woe. E-book reading is different enough, couldn’t wrap my around my head around listening to it be read by Mr. Lanegan. Maybe at some future time

Ive been looking forward to reading this book since it was announced, what?, two years ago? Couldn’t have envisioned I’d be reading it under a global pandemic lockdown. Unprecedented times. This too shall pass

Audible audio book is already available where I'm at! Too bushed right now, will start in on it whenever I wakey

haha ps: I checked my library account that's been like a bug in amber since the lockdown to find that my hold I placed for this is ready too... maybe I'll listen as I read along

still want a physical hardcover one day :-)

My book hasn’t even shipped from Amazon USA yet, says it’s arriving May 14....sure!!!! Even if I cancel I’ll probably only get half my money back. I also checked Oz sites and they need to get them from o/s anyway and one says delivery is June!!! Didn’t get the audiobook today so I guess it still will be 30/4

I am waiting for my signed book from Rough Trade.

You can get two free audiobooks with an Audible trial on Amazon. Tempted.

There's no free ebook trial, but on Amazon you can get refund for Kindle ebooks. I think you'd have a couple of days to read the book.

As long as you don't abuse the refund option, there should be no issue.
