This book is so great, I could just make love to it right now. If it were a person...okay.

Who here has the book yet, or is getting it soon? I dragged my dad (who hasn't read them) with me to Barnes and Noble XD, it was definitely worth it, we had some good times with these people in their 30s around us.

I'll emerge from my room when I finish the book in..10 hours. Well I guess I should sleep first.


PS: The poor people in IRC! Just when you thought I was over it after talking about it nonstop for the past 3 days, now you get to listen to me rave and rant about it for the next week/s.

I'm reading it right now while playing Kingdom of Loathing. Up to page 193 of the Australian/UK version. Wish Dumbledore would tell Harry already *grumbles*

I wanted to get it, but the line was too long at Barnes & Noble, and I didn't have a pre-order.

AHHHHHHHHH!

The end is so sad... but not surprising, really.

Ah, someone PM me with the ending? My copy isn't here yet. I'm curious if it's Snape or Dumbledore that dies? Probably the latter - or so the rumors tell.

Did anyone go to the Midnight Party? I noticed the event on Border's calendar.

Anyway, I was thinking about getting the box set one of these days. I have too many series that I'd like to start reading, so I have no idea when I'll even get to HP.

Don't post any spoilers, or suggestions about the ending/plot of the book. Please? sad.gif

the pope says it keeps christianity from forming in young souls.

I intend to give copies to every child I know. Mark up several billion people for Hell!

If you people spoil this for me, I will make sure your souls writhe in unending torment until the end of days. sword.gif

That said, I'm glad I have off today. Working a library today would be very hectic.

Actually, the Pope said there's nothing wrong with it biggrin.gif.

I just finished it, and whooooah. That may be my favorite book yet, I don't know. But all I can say is, I really hope we don't have to wait 3 years or any ridiculous amount of time for the final installment. And I have new favorite characters. GO READ IT PEOPLE :|.

Being the cheapstake (cheapskate? I never figured out which one it was) I am, I'll wait a couple of months when the prices go down.
Veonira2005-07-17 02:54:22
How can you torture yourself so?
Unknown2005-07-17 02:57:33
This was by far, my favourite so far. It really answered all my questions, while posing a more reasonable amount, which I'm sure will be answered in the seventh book.

I just finished reading it for the second time.
Unknown2005-07-17 03:00:48
i wanna read it now sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif Got to wait for a bit though grr
Maedhros2005-07-17 03:12:52
I dunno. I'm more waiting for the eleventh Wheel of Time book though, so I gotta save my money to buy that as soon as it comes out happy.gif.

...provided it isn't as craptacular as the tenth book.
