Awesome! And, on a connected and entirely thrilling note to another post you made some time ago....Acetone’s full catalogue is being released on vinyl with an added 11 album box set that looks amazing.
I’d like to think your post, Colin, had a part to play in this.... but coincidence is equally poetic. Either way, this is an Acetone fan’s day made in full.
Thanks for alerting us to non-mega online sources for physical and audiobooks. Will make me feel so much better spending money that could help out independent books stores rather than a multi-billionaire!
Also, any chance some of these paperbacks will have the authors signature? One of our dogs found the hardcover very tasty and Powells had sold out of the ones you signed there during your tour.
I somehow bought three hard copies but their great to gift so an extra paperback may be in the future. Like legos , you can never have too many Melody related books or records! Know that’s a typo but kind of works too !
That’s so strange... I was at a B&N on Sunday and bought one. I didn’t know it hadn’t been paperback yet, but that’s what I got. Did B&N break the street date? 😯

He is quoted on the preorder page:
"Acetone is a great band, a timeless one, and a band whose records deserve to be out there for a new generation of fans to discover.”

Great book (and quite terrifying!). If you are in MPLS, pick up a copy at Magers and Quinn!

P.S. sorry to buy it from a big-box store, but my son had a gift card he needed to use and we were already there. 😕
Really enjoyed this book, and thought the ending was perfect!
