Could just be when they're expecting to get stock. Yen Press's site and all the major UK booksellers still list June.
It is also possible Barnes&Noble have had a decent number of pre-orders for the title, but are unwilling to order large deliveries of a relatively niche title so yours will come from a later shipment. I've seen similar stuff happen with other companies before, even if it would make sense to try and fulfil preorders (you have to remember we dont know how big the initial print run is and it may simply be a case of Yen Press being unable/unwilling to roll out enough copies at once to meet the orders from all the sites, or alternatively, the company that supplies Barnes & Noble being able to allocate the required level of stock initially).
