Tomorrow, the discussion question is to predict the problem for The Black Wolf. I have another prediction for The Black Wolf and what we will be doing on October 28, 2025!

Last October on the 29th when The Grey Wolf came out, did you all drop everything to read the book right away? I did. It's been a very long time since I've felt as anxious and excited for a book as I did for TGW.

  1. That is a hoot! Full disclosure, I did not start “The Grey Wolf” the day it arrived. That was not because I had not been counting the days, though! I saved it until November 6th and, at that point, I needed to visit Three Pines and the state of mind it represents. I am, however, expecting to begin “The Black Wolf” as soon as I have it in my hands.

  2. I got it on Audible bright and early on the day it was published, and listened all day until I was finished. Only the absolutely mandatory or mindless tasks were done that day, as I didn’t want distractions. Then I read my hard copy at a more leisurely pace. I will probably do the same next October, if possible!

    1. Oh that’s interesting, Susan. Do you always get both an audiobook and the hardcopy upon release? I listened to the audiobooks first through Libby and then, much later, have slowly acquired the print versions to read again.

      1. For these books, I want both. When I love a book, I want a hard copy, so that I can read it and examine it any time I want. I like to listen to audiobooks while I’m doing other things, so that I can get more accomplished, but sometimes I just need to sit down, concentrate, and savor the written word. And if I really like a book, I want it to always be available to me. When I was younger, I thought that once a book was in the library, I could find it there for the rest of my life; didn’t realize until I had some librarians in the family that that isn’t always the case; that they often get rid of books to make room for others (duh, right? Sometimes it takes me a while to catch on…) So after a few disappointments, being unable to get things I loved after they went out of print sometimes, I got into the habit of hoarding the ones I really love; and I really love LP’s books. The audio versions are icing on the cake for me; I love a good storyteller, and when I hear a book it’s like discovering it all over again. So this past year I started experimenting with Audible , collecting the audio versions of this series as well. I already had a “free” credit available, so have already pre-ordered the audio version of The Black Wolf!
