White People Like Instant Gratification

Hey, doesn’t it feel like just LAST month when everyone was all shocked/bitter/troubled at the book deal for the website Stuff White People Like? Oh, wait it was. And now, I read in Shelf Awareness that the book is pubbing in JULY. July. As in a little over two months from now. Is it even possible to write a book, copy edit, type set, and put it through production in three months? I guess they skipped that whole pesky ARC process. There’s not even a cover yet (at least, not on the Random House website or on Amazon). Perhaps since the book had already gotten so much press, RH figured that they should just get that sucker on the shelves before it jumped the shark. Oops, too late.
