I knew I shouldn't have looked at this thread until I read the book myself....but I am the girl who always looks ahead to find out how books end.....now I'm going to be anticipating the death to see who it is....

It's okay, I don't mind knowing ahead of time....

Just what I was thinking...he is INTENSE...I'm on Chapter 12 now...the FedEx guy took long to get here...lol.

All I can think of is Yoda(yeah, Yoda as in Star Wars) saying 'Hate leads to the darkside'
I'm a little worreid about Harry.

Within about 4 hours (not even consecutive) I'm about 200+ pages into it. I had to make myself put it down because I'll be going thru withdrawl if I read it too quickly.

Here's my story.. I arrive at Barnes & Nobles around 11:30a.m. They are COMPLETELY OUT unless you pre-ordered it. The nice girl told me that the Target (only a few shops away) had some. I was happy that happened, though, because it was on sale for like $16.88 or something @ Target. But you can't tell me B&N didn't plan to sell a WHOLE LOT of those books today?!

Yeah... YAY WAL-MART!

I'm on chapter 3, and this book is SO good! I'm trying to pace myself because I don't want to finish it too quickly!

I just finished the book (picked it up this afternoon at Border's).

It was good. I won't post any apoilers but I will say that I very much liked it. Here's what I WILL say:

No reaaaaal surprises at the end, but I have a WHOLE new respect for those rascally Weasleys!

Can't wait for book 6!

I too got the book at Walmart last night/this morning (first in line I might add - how sad! ). I am currently around page 300 and I can't wait to read more! There were some questions answered and a lot more suspense hanging around until now (what's up with Hagrid and Dumbledore. . . .)

Back to the book! I'm so glad that I have tomorrow off so I can finish the book and start again for the smaller details!
