And I sent it in the same condition I received it in and there was nothing warped or bent pages or anything. :/ Bummer about the book though cause it was a phenom read. The finished copy looks sooo pretty and shiny. There is a whole display at the Barnes and Noble I work at. :)Looksie Lovitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17799795473456411980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471968154631411439.post-91568805811374448232010-12-28T14:58:05.884-08:002010-12-28T14:58:05.884-08:00Well in this case only 6 people got it before me.A...Well in this case only 6 people got it before me.And I assure you, I have gotten ARCs after friends have read them and they are brand new.A Story Untoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904185201569328227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471968154631411439.post-20441542387675667182010-12-28T13:03:50.868-08:002010-12-28T13:03:50.868-08:00Agreed but you have to keep in mind how many peopl...Agreed but you have to keep in mind how many people have read that ARC while it's been on tour. ARCs are not made to withstand multiple uses. Heck, half the ones I receive are falling apart (pages falling out) before I even get to the middle of the book. So, sometimes it's not the people, it's the product.Jess (The Cozy Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09952470536106390326noreply@blogger.com
