IGJ is where? (no spoilers)

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

So far, aside from the few people with advance copies, nobody but me has
mentioned reading IGJ, or even seeing it.  I checked out a B&N
"superstore" yesterday, and they didn't have it.  But I didn't
hallucinate my copy, honest.  Nor is it marked as an advance copy or
anything like that; nor was it gotten out of a back room.  It was
sitting on a table along with other new sf books that indubitably have
been released.  Did I manage to stumble into the only store in the world
with a copy of IGJ?

Anyway, I do have a couple more non-spoiler comments on the book, but I
think I'll wait until I know it's really out there.
