SNAPE IS BAD!! Bad bad bad!

And I'll wait to see it until the first "wow" rush is over :)

But you're right Eimi - everyone who reserves the books and reads them in the first week spoil it for those who wait! haha!!

You CAN avoid the book spoilers with no problem, but they're also VERY available if you want them.  

I can say that I've never stood in line for an HP book.   And I don't plan to start :)   I did stand in line for a Robert Jordan book...

not worth it though!

Eimi, you HAVE to read the books!! What's the fun of knowing the end w/o knowing the build-up to it? I'm so excited for the movie and even MORE excited for the book.  And yes, I plan on waiting in line for my HP book 7 on the 21st! In fact, my friend and I are going w/ my lil sis and we're just going to hang out.  When the 6th book came out, it was packed, but everyone was really calm and nice about it, so that helped w/ the wait. LOL  :cheers:

I've ordered thorugh Amazon for the book to be delivered on release date. I'd have reserved earlier but I wasn't sure where I'd be living on release date. At the moment it looks like I'll still be here -- though probably not for much longer afterward!

I heard that Amazon.com has a record 1.6 million requests for the book and they're all going to be delivered that Saturday.  That's an AMAZING organizational feat! LOL  :compress:

It really is  :D  And you definitely save money buying it on amazon, and I would've ordered it that way, but it's been tradition for me and my friends to go stand in line and get it at midnight  *g*  It'll be fun to go to the last Harry Potter bookstore party, too....

But of course!  Amazon is a Seattle based company!  They're all fueled by Starbucks!   :coffee2:  Nectur of the gods, my friends.

1. No, not going at midnight.  We went in today and reserved tickets for the family to see it at 6.30pm tomorrow (Wednesday) night.  *shivers in anticipation*   Not sure what time that is where you are, but I know in WI and TN it's about 3.30am, if that helps?  (Cinema's over here are only showing from 10.00am onwards tomorrow.)

2. Snape is good.  He saved Draco's soul by 'killing' Dumbledore. *nods*  And yes, by 'killing' I mean I don't believe Dumbledore is dead.

3. Won't be queuing to buy the book, I'll waltz into Target at 9.05am Saturday morning collect the book from the massive display stand near the front door, and walk straight to the checkout, and be home reading it by 9.15am. *nods*

(That's the way I've done it the past two releases...)  :D
