So who pre-ordered it?

So, who Pre-ordered the new Harry Potter book? i never really liked Harry Potter that much, but i am dying to know what happens in the final book and i am not a patient person. i suckered my mom into pre-ordering it for me off of amazon

.

Are you going to go to those midnight release? There is going to be a huge party tonight for the release where i live. they even transformed one of the fairgrounds into a Hogwarts theme with sorting hats and everything. not really my cup of tea, but i thought it was cool.

i re-read the last book this week and finished it in 2 days flat (not like i had anything better to do

) so that will be fun.

okay, so maybe i am a little bit bored right now.................

I did!!! I always get the book on CD...the narator Jim Dale is really good!! Can't wait to listen to it. Family road trip with the kid and the hubby so we are not fighting over reading the book.

I preordered and I'm #623 to pick up my book. Now that is #623 with the color red. Apparently they call out all the numbers of a certain color first THEN move onto the next color and go through all the numbers so who knows how long I will have to wait.

My husband and I always order two books that way we can each read at our own pace. Which means that I always read faster so I can tell him all the juicy details before he reads them muhahahahaha (evil laugh)

I preordered mine as well. I'm number 75 of red. *evil grin* I'll be in and out tonight in no time flat. Of course I had to stand in line for two hours to get that number, but it was worth it. I'll be home and reading by 12:30 or so.

I'm getting 4 books, one for me, one for my son, one for my mom, and one for my step-dad. Don't care much for the party thing, but I'll be there in line surfing on computer here in a few.

I can't wait to start reading.

I should have.

I probably wont get to read it for a while though. I'll have to avoid spoilers as much as possible.

I ordered my copy on Feb. 1st the first day you could order it....from Amazon!

The last Harry Potter book (the HBP) was delivered to my front door before 8 A.M. the morning of the release day...I am hoping this last book makes it here just as early!
