Yes, Eru, I agree!

Drop by the review thread when you are done. I want to talk about this book!

Possible spoilers....but really just musings....

Don't want to enter the spoiler thread because I don't want to get spoiled, but I think I've figured out who dies after thinking about the chapter titles Phoenix's Lament and White Tomb. I hope I'm not right, but I have a feeling I'm going to be. :(

I think you will be surprised ;)

But lets just try to remember that chapter headings are spoilers too :rage:

Bah, wish I had an excuse to buy more books! HP6 lasted me all of five and a half hours... now I have nothing to read! NOTHING!

I got it at midnight, and on the way back to the car passed a couple of dozen people all crowding under streetlights to read the book... as they were all dressed in wizards clothes, I was forcibly reminded of the scene in PS where all the wizards are talking about Mouldywart's disappearance. I told them this and they were delighted! Apparently that's what they'd thought too!

I read it until 2:30 that morning... then I almost passed out from sleep exhaustion... anyone else try to pull an all-nighter and fail?

Hmmm no not an all-nighter. i tried reading it at 9 am but didn't last longer then 2.30 pm. My head began to protest against reading another word :roll: Will finish it tomorrow.

And i wish they would have the dressed up fans here :( i haven't seen any apart from two that went to London to get the book ( me's jealous of that btw)
