I have a gigantic Snuff dilemma.

I ordered my own copy last Tuesday, and it was only put in the mail today. Which means I won't get it for at least 4-5 days.

But before I ordered it I had put a reserve on it at my local library and it's now there, waiting for me to get it.

My dilemma: Should I wait until I get my own copy, and be nice to others waiting for the library version by letting it go back in circulation, or should I just grab the library book because I want to start reading this?

Isn't this a totally horrible conundrum? Almost "Sophie's Choice"-like, innit?

:)

Just checked on Audible they have the unexpurgated version, tempted but will wait till I have a spare credit as the members price is just over £16 pricey.
Hee hee. I've had a spare credit sitting in my account since July. I temporarily suspending my account for three months (so I wouldn't get charged anymore) hoping that the audiobook version would come out before they turned the account back on. Now that it's there, I'm going to use my credit and immediately cancel my membership afterward.

I missed the postman delivering it this morning by ten minutes, so I'll be picking it up on Monday from the post office. Gives me time to plow through what I'm reading at the minute so I guess don't mind too much.

I just... I wanted to hold it :cry:
What!!!! in public. ;) :laugh:
Don't judge me! If the public can't accept the love between a woman and a book then that's their problem, not mine!
