Haha I hate it when other people see when packages and stuff come in the mail for me. Especially my mom who gets super nosey. I'm kind of glad I was home when the SCHOLASTIC box came. Did not feel like explaining :|

I had this problem when I was in high school. My parents would always ask me what I'd be getting in my packages. Letters would "accidentally" open. Eventually they just realized I was a huge geek, ordering geeky things. :P

My books came in yesterday!  It's fo real, folks! ;D

So far I've noticed

[spoiler]
-The scene where Jake "thinks" and Tobias "hears" his thought speech has been changed to say that it only works when you're morphing

-"I have a Sega at home" is changed to "I have a system at home"

-A few grammatical changes, like a comma deleted, the phrase "mall area" changed to just "mall".

-The word "cloned" changed into "fused" to describe Elfangor looking like someone had fused a person and a deer together.

-There is no inset cover picture, and the pages don't "morph" when you flip them.

-The back phrase that everyone knows and loves has been cut down to something to the effect of:

"We can't tell you who we are.  Or where we live.  It's too risky, and we've got to be careful.  Really careful.  But everyone is in danger.  Yeah.  Even you."
[/spoiler]

I haven't gotten much farther, but it'll be interesting to see what other changes crop up. 

*happy dance* Morphing covers!

Thanks for putting the changes in spoilers! I already know so many details, it'll be nice to have a few surprises when I finally do read them. :P

I finally got mine. :)

At least, I assume that's the package my dad told me I have waiting. :P

Scholastic appears to have renewed the science discount!  Coupon code SCI20 for 20% off at checkout.  I just ordered and got the two books for $10.81 including shipping.  Sweet.
