I like the idea of reading it together. :) I think I'll probably just run to a bookstore and buy it once it's released on the 30th. I'll keep you posted.

A,
The Little Stranger is already available on Amazon.com.
I'll have to wait another week or so before I can order it on amazon.ca. :)
Will let you know when I get my copy!

I'm planning on stopping by a few bookshops this weekend, so hopefully I'll be able to pick up a copy in the next day or so.
I'll wait to start reading it until you get your copy. I probably won't start reading it until after the NYC Brokie event next weekend.

Heya Milli!! :D
I'm here to report that I bought my copy of The Little Stranger today! :) Just looking at the cover of this book makes me have a huge urge to re-read The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson. LOL, also this title keeps reminding me of The Little Friend by Donna Tartt (she's one of my favorite authors too).
Like I said, I'll hold off on starting The Little Stranger until you get your copy... so we can begin at the same time.
Also, in other news... I watched Fingersmith again last night! :) Good times. The more I watch that movie the more I'm struck by what a clever story that is. I remember being genuinely surprised and totally caught off guard by the big twist in the middle when I read the book for the first time.

I watched Tipping the last 2 nights. It had been months since my last viewing.
I lent all 3 SW dvds to a friend who wanted to watch them for the longest time.
She had them for over three months and still didnt find the time to watch a single one.
Anyway, got them back recently and decided to watch all 3 over again, starting with TTV.
Some of my favorite scenes in the movie are of Nan & Flo, especially...
..this one: Flo out of sight & watching quietly as Nan sings to baby Cyril..
and..
and..
and especially... :)
Love them all.. but this one always stays with me..
I understand what she is feeling here. An absolutely poignant moment in the film.
