The B&N here (Glendale WI, suburb of Milwaukee) didn’t have it in stock and had no copies ordered. They didn’t even offer to order it for me, they just said, “Sorry!”
The Borders a couple miles up the road had a stack of them on the “new and noteworthy” table as you walk in. Guess where I’m going first to look for new books from now on?
Now that it’s on the NY Times Bestseller list, it will be interesting to see if B&N stocks it and puts it in that section at the advertised bestseller discount; I look forward to telling them I’d have purchased a copy at full price if they’d made it available instead of shunting me off to the competition.
