Hi, Bryce & Joey,
I’m sitting here with PAYBACK right in front of me — hardcover, paperback uncorrected proof, and regular paperback. Sorry, Bryce. I don’t know why your copy has that error, but my copies don’t.
Thanks for defending the book, Joey.
And — both of you — it’s YOU’RE, a contraction meaning YOU ARE. The apostrophe replaces the A.
And thanks to both of you for keep watch. Publishing companies do make mistakes, but not this time.
Regards,
—-Gordon Korman—-
