Yay! Only one more week until the 5th Harry Potter book comes out! He'll turn 15 in the book, though I'm not sure how this is important... Anyway, at least it isn't coming out next year. That would be true torture, even though they said the 5th would come out last year, and that's been torture enough. At least there's time to reread the books...

Ugh! All the false alarms have been MURDER on my poor psyche! I can count almost 5 false alarms...
The worst about book5 is that with it JK Rowling will not be going around on tour, which is seriously depressing. ;_; Ahh well...
Book 5 sounds wonderful. The buzz around the book is VERY positive, many say it easily beats all the others as far as plot, characters, everything!
Ahhh, six days, six days...six...long...very long...too long...why do they have to be so long...days.
...erm, just refresh my memory. If I break into a bookstore, steal a copy of HP5, maybe knock out a few secuirty guards and then break a window on my way out, can I be arrested?

Nah, you'd have to drive away in a vehicle containing 2,000 sheep to be arrested....I haven't read the fourth book yet. *Hides.*

Well, Dad ordered a copy, so as soon as it's out, they'll send us a copy. Should keep me busy for a week or two, when I can't watch TV because the Livam's granddaughter is watching it... If I go non-stop, I might manage to finish it in a day. I once read all 4 books in under 5 days, you know. It would have been less, if not for ****ing SCHOOL!

I've never understood why everyoen is bragging about how quickly they finish HP. I feel that if you read too fast then you miss all the lovely details that JK puts in. Personaly, I read fast, but for HP5 I will make sure to read nice and slow to get all those lovley details. ^_^

Maybe it's because I'm online too much and not reading enough books. Can you believe I haven't even read completely through a single Dragonriders of Pern book? Anyway, I think it took me about 3 weeks (or less) to finish #4... I don't see how fast you read it is important, though, unless you like ruining the plot for others. I heard someone would die in the 5th... Gee, Mrs. Rowling has sure made the HP books darker and darker... Can't wait to see what happens with... Wait a minute, isn't there someone in here who hasn't read #4? I'll shut up then, so I won't ruin anything.

I haven't even read the first books (Yet I am watching the movies. Bad me!), so I'm not really going to any sell-out at midnight.

It's weird though. Some people don't like the bookies (*gasp!!!*), but like the movies, and some like the bookies (like me), and not too much the movies.
Well, anyways . . . I can't waaait! My mummu's birthday is the day it comes out on.no Hoooi, I should have ordered a copy. Maybe I can sit in front of a shop for the entire day and buy something for mummu along the way! =D It rhymes too!

I love the books, but the movies are perfectly awful.... I've read all four, but I only have the first three, so I don't know whether I'll actually be buying the fifth or not. I might just borrow it or get it out of the library. It's kinda too bad, though; I have #2 in paperback instead of hardcover. I like the hardcover ones....^_^

yeah. friday nights almost here. Now I just have to stay up until midnight.
Well this book will more-then-likely be longer then #4 since #4 is longer then #3, but it doesn't always work that way.
I'm a fast reader. Can't really help it, but these books just get so interesting that they make you read them to see whats going to happen. I'll try to slow down this time, but can't guarantee anything.
And to the person that didn't read the 4th, read that one before #5. Might keep you busy until fri. night.

The 5th book is gonna be over 800 pages I think it's over 900 in america, because of the special book font.
