Great book deal EXTENDED

EEEP! I just found out about this at the last minute – well, last few hours, this deal expires at midnight Pacific time Monday, so I apologize if you don’t read this until it’s too late. Amazon is giving 25% off of any one book, maximum savings $10; just enter BOOKDEAL25 in the promotion code slot toward the end of the checkout process. You can come close to maxing that out by buying the latest Peanuts Every Sunday volume, and pull its price down below $30. Added: They’ve just extended the deal until at least midnight PST Tuesday, so go buy something!

(Please click through on that link even if you’re ordering a different book, so that your order gets credited to the AAUGH Blog. This helps fund what I do here.)
