First time in several books since we haven't. I think we've bought each one at midnight since. . . book 2? I think they were doing midnight sales at book 2. If it wasn't book 2, it was book 3.
But we were out in Lenox, for a Shakespeare play at Shakespeare & Co., and were staying overnight to see a free play at noon the next day. And while they did have bookstores in Lenox open at midnight, we decided not to buy it, because, if we had, Lis would have stayed up all night reading, and not been alert for the play the next day. Which, since she'd gotten press tickets on the assumption that she'd write a competent review, wouldn't be a great thing.
The two shows were Taming of the Shrew at night on the main stage, and, The Tamer Tamed the next day on the Rose Footprint Theater -- John Fletcher's 1611 sequel to Shakespeare's play.
I'm not writing reviews right now, 'cause I'm still thinking about them, but I do want to mention that it was amusing that the director of Shrew did, in her speech thanking everyone after the show (opening night reception), mention that she was going to be leaving soon to make sure to pick up the new Harry Potter.
