I want, I want, I want

Look - Kathleen Gilles Seidel's new book finally has its cover up!   

I actually have already read The Spymaster's Lady.  At the three-quarters mark I decided I wanted my own copy and went to several stores to see if I could find it, including Meijer where I saw it a few weeks ago (and decided not to risk the $7.99).   Nothing.  Max was getting bored in the book aisle there so I asked him to help me look since the books aren't alphabetized.  

"Look for a book with a man with a naked tummy," I said.  He quickly located one.  "Not that one." 

"But this one has a naked tummy," he said.

"It does have a naked tummy, yes," I said, "but I need one with a guy with a naked tummy and brown hair."  He held up another.  "And no hat." 

There were a lot of naked tummies in that aisle, as Max could tell you.  But not the one on The Spymaster's Lady.  We went home disappointed.
