PARASITE open thread!

[seanan_mcguire]

To (somewhat belatedly) celebrate the release of Parasite, here. Have an open thread to discuss the book.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.)

You can also start a book discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.

Have fun!

Another awesome book! I picked it up the day it came out and only managed to stop reading at 1am because I had a work function the next day. Devi and Sherman managed to make me cry, though less so at Sherman's reintroduction. I'm eagerly awaiting the next book.

Will you ever post/publish the full text of "Don't Go Out Alone"? The little snippits are very tantalizing and I would love to see the full story.

How do you pronounce Chave's name? Every time I read it my brain wants to go a different way, and it's kinda bumping me out of the story. Hopefully you can correct that for me please?

The narrator on the audiobook pronounces it with a hard "ch" as in "child" and rhyming with "Dave".

The narrator on the audiobook is wrong.

Oh, well. So much for my attempt to be helpful. Any chance you could tell us the right way to say it?

Sha-vey.
