What Jen said.
PLEASE!
Y'all did that in the "What book are you reading" thread with the last Potter book, so please don't do it again...
I read the Potter books with son, a chapter at a time each night, so it takes time! I actually LIKE to make them last.
And I don't have the book yet... I usually get it cheap at Walmart.

j/k Haven't read a single Potter book. Was more a Lord of the Rings nerd.

I got 2 copies on Sunday morning, when I went to collect the newspapers.
Bought them in ASDA (the English Wal-Mart) for $10 each. Not too bad for first editions.
One is for my nephew in Norway. It will cost more to post the damned thing than to buy it!!

Great. I'm on pg 350. At this rate, I'm gonna finish in a month.
Well, I guess I could ignore my wife, my kids, my dog, home projects, work and just read for several hours straight.

Still haven't bought the book yet. I always take months to read it... stretch out the pleasure!
Here's a couple of rednecks who go to a Harry Potter book release party.

Well, with a stroke of luck, the kids got to bed early, my wife was reading her book, the dog was asleep and the basement paint needed to dry so I got about 4 hours of book reading time in. I'm on page 650ish. Hopefully I can finish it tonight! And yes, that last 200 pages so far are reaally good. I only put it down because it was 12:30 AM and I was very tired.

Oooh! When you hit about 729 make sure you can finish it. Trust me, you won't want to put it down at all after that.

Yeah, I went home on Friday and motored through it. Yeah! Good book, imo. I've got some friends who have finished it and now we can have Harry Potter discussions. The wife's not done yet so I have to be hush hush about it at home.
