Very excited by today's advance pre-order email from SST. Think it's being publicly announced in a few days. This book was one of the best of the series so far! Will be very happy to have an LE of it in my collection.

Good to hear that it's high on your list of that particular series. I haven't gotten to it yet, but will do so when the SST edition is in hand.

I understand. I like the style he writes in but the content, of what I've read, was political and lecturing. This comment is in regards to his book Survivor Song.

I'm done with Tremblay. THE PALLBEARERS CLUB was the most self-indulgent thing I've ever read, and I still can't believe anyone published it.

That was my thought as well, but I think this one might be an upgrade on the Sub Press edition.

I look forward to comparing them side-by-side.

I was definitely tempted to buy the SST edition, but didn't give in!

This is where I'm sitting right now. I do like the presentation of this edition, though, and if I didn't have the Sub Press, I would be all over it.

Same. One nice edition of STINGER is enough, and my Sub Press edition is very nice indeed.

I have the Sub Press edition, so I'm skipping this one. Looks nice, though.

Sorry to be cryptic but I am stoked about the super secret release from SST.

I can't afford it, will not be a buyer, but sure wish I could. Missing out on this one stings a bit.

"stings a bit" is a great pun!

It's not one of his better novels, but I'm still excited to see what they do with it.

Just received the shipping notice for The Beast You Are. Can't wait to see this production by SST! Hopefully, I will enjoy the actual book as I haven't read it previously and it seems pretty divisive on Goodreads.

Though I'm a big Tremblay fan, I skipped this one...a novella-length prose poem is just not for me. Unfortunately, it falls on the heels of his last novel, THE PALLBEARERS CLUB, which was a DNF for me. So, much like Grady Hendrix and Joe Hill, whose last works fell flat for me, I'm discouraged and a little gunshy of them all now, but still do remain hopeful for future works.

I like the option as well. It gives me a chance to purchase a book once in awhile.

Just received the email from SST for the optional slipcase for The Beast You Are. Definitely a pass for me as slipcase prices have gotten too outrageous for my blood. For example, after conversion, the price of the LE for The Beast You Are was $60. The price for the optional slipcase is around $53, practically as much as the book itself! While I do love slipcases, my sweet spot is around a quarter of the book's price, give or take. Because of that, I can only see myself purchasing SST slipcases for very special occasions/books. That being said, I do love that Paul (mostly) makes slipcases optional for his LE books rather than automatically folding the cost into the overall book price as it allows shoppers on a budget to more easily afford his LEs. Also, this slipcase issue pertains to all small presses, not just SST. Their email this morning just placed the issue top of mind for me.
