I remember working at borders like a decade ago or more, and when I first got there husband realized, “oh! The publisher has a system you can check to see when they plan on releasing a book, yeah? See when a dance with dragons is coming out!!!” So I did

We watched that date move over the course of a year. Then just disappear from the system. It was like two more years after that before it came out or more (time is my enemy)

It’s never ending.
