I wouldn't. In order to coax the 14 people into bringing the books back the publishers said that if they do bring it back they get it autograph from J.K. Rowling personally.

I have a copy reserved and waiting for me at Waldenbooks and shall be grabbing it at midnight... oh my gods... 24 hours and 23 minutes from right now *heart is racing*

No sleep for the Elara, staying up reading with my boyfriend until we can't keep our eyes open... then sleep... then gaming and more reading.

Today my brother gave me a triva quiz in the paper based on the books, some rather obscure questions. I got 15/15, which according to the quiz means I could be a Headmaster, w00t! I am proud of my geeky knowledge!

I finished it about 5 hours ago since I took my time with it... and didn't really start reading it until last night.

OMG, I cried... it was so sad!! I knew who died, since my boyfriend looked in the back and spoiled it for everyone, but I still cried!

The thing with Tonks was both funny and cute, I actually admire Fleur now, and Krecher... oh gods that was hilarious!

What about Kreacher was funny? PM me and remind me. I am not sure what part you are talking about. I knew it was going to happen when they were up on the tower. I just some how knew that was exactly what would happen. I was so ticked off and then of course Elara you and I should discuss the mystery surrounding the part toward the end. Any ideas on how you and I could talk about it?

I really don't understand why people want to read it so fast.. you have about 2 years for the next to come out... why not just take your time?

I read every book I get quickly. I don't just do it with Harry Potter. It is kind of annoying we have to wait forever to read the next one though.

If anyone wants the book in HTML format PM me, im gonna buy it eventually but I couldn'twait so I downloaded it.

Its ben so long since I read the order of the phoenix that im a little shaky on a few things but overall im fine. So far the book is very well written....and generally I like how everything is starting to take a much more serious edge with all the danger lurking around every corner.

I read books very quckly too, I finished all of the HP books on the day I got them so far.

I think they were acting a bit stupid at some points esp Ron.

Well, lets not have any spoilers...we can talk about the book, but not too far into it, since im a slow reader

But yea, im gettin a hint that Hermonie(or however you spell that f***ed up british name) likes ron, its kinda evident, but ehh, im slow on those types..

It was evident in the 5th book as well. And the 4th. Ron and Hermione have liked each other since the fourth. Ron got really irratated with Krum when he went to the ball with Hermione. Then in the 5th book when Hermione kissed Ron on the cheek the way Ron reacted pretty much confirmed it to me.

The movies don't count though because they aren't the same as the books. They add things like that too much is what I mean.

i don't really mind what they add... i on'ly care about what they cut, which is loads! It may be unrealistic, but if they weren't going to do it right fro the start they shouldn't bother.

I agree the third movie was like insanely hard to follow if you hadn't read the book. Really crazy. But they did the dementors right.
