Harry Potter!

I like Luna a little- she has nice intentions, with her whole whimsical and unique persona, but I feel like the character was kind of trying too hard.

It's not that i don't like her...it's just that i don't feel like she earned going to the department of mysteries and being one of them.

Yeah you're definitely right about that. Maybe Rowling forgot to mention her bonding with the group. Ah, who knows.

and now i kind of expect harry to have grown up with me. i expect him to be out getting pissed and having sex..and it confuses me when he's not, when he still behaves and talks like a kid

LOL!

Can you imagine parents reading that to their kids?
"And then Harry slid his hand up her back and undid Ginny's bra..."

I kinda like that it's not focussed on that shit though. Make's it less complicated and Hazza really doesn't need to be any more emo.
I'm rereading pheonix right now, and I could whack the kid because of his freakin tantrums.

thats what the harry potter fan-porn community on LJ is for

and apparently, its been leaked on the internet.
Sam says his friend has read it and sent it to him...I dont know if I believe him altho there have been rumours of it. He hasnt read it because he's not a fan but he knows the gist I think and has read the...epilogue or however its spelt.
So I got him to tell me the title of the first chapter...and we'll see what happens on saturday

im so mad at him tho.
i kicked him and had a hissy fit him and his dad were laughing at me cos i kept girl slapping him >.<

There are spoilers everywhere. I'm afraid to lurk around the net like I usually do.

OMG IT COMES TODAY!
ITS 1AM!
I NEED TO GO TO BED SO THAT IT'LL BE LIKE CHRISTMAS...YOU KNOW, THE SOONER YOU SLEEP, THE SOONER IT COMES!

I've begged my dad to get up early and be listening for the door and then wake me once it arrives.

omg...i went on to amazon to see if it had anything and it wasnt in like "dispatched" so i changed it to "orders placed in 2007" and its not there...

oh thank god...i placed the order on the 28th of December 2006.

Delivery #1: Dispatched on 16 Jul 2007
Delivery estimate: 21 Jul 2007 (More about estimates)
1 package via Royal Mail

oh thats so nice.

I'm going to the release party tonight. Probably should have pre-ordered one. What sucks is that tomorrow I have to work, and I won't be able to read it until after that.

I've never anticipated the release of a book so much.

haha i was like "sam, i can see you on saturday...but you cant talk to me til my eyes get sore! but you should make me sandwiches and soup!" and he was like sure...i wont feel guilty for playing games and ignoring you then

cheeky.

omg.
my friend just posted a myspac bulletin saying:
is this cruel?
is it cruel for sam and i to tape a piece of paper to our chest saying "*name* dies" and walk around town and into wh smith?"
(one of the main book shops here)

so i said on msn "i swear, if he dies and you fucking spoilt it for me, i will kill you"
and blocked him.

sam says they were just talking about making up spoilers but if the person he mentioned does die...he's off my friends list.
dramatic...maybe but it's SO CRUEL to post things like that without warning people...and i have gone out of my way to avoid spoilers and getting into speculation because i just dont want it and i DISPISE people spoiling things for me (unless its like on here when you put a spoiler link for example, then its my choice to read it).

sam says he hasnt told him where to find the book online and he just pulled a name out of nowhere (and an obvious name) but ill still not talk to him if it turns out

blehhhh

*kills all*

please do kill him!

and just so we're clear...anyone even posts a hint, a spoiler under a spoiler cut...ANYTHING until we're well clear of it being released...and ill ban you :]
im that serious. not just for me...anyone.

*sweet angelic face*

im getting worked up...sorry! i read 1-3 and then 4 came out not long after and i was majjorly excited but i wasnt like wetting myself when like the other 2 came out...i was excited but not crazy like i am for this one. especially as i have just re read them all so it feels like its not been long.

I would be so pissed if someone spoiled it for me. Apparently, Wikipedia is infested with spoilers.

Never in my life have I typed spoil/spoiled/spoiler more than this past week.

Ooooh I have it!!! I'm off to read it, but I'd thought I'd brag.

sigh. I get to work til 5 today. I told my sister she's not allowed to take it to dad's.. and considering the number of crazy hours I've had, I probably won't be going to dad's after work. This means Lisabeth gets to read it before the Munchkin.

i wanna read iiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!

but we forgot to pre order

damn damn damnity damn

I got it today and i've already read up to chapter 10, woo -hoo, lol i'm a nerd

I queued at Tescos last night for mine.


I know. Your all jealous of my cool life.





Chapter 6 for me!

mine came at 8am thanks to MR AMAZON!
yup...im too lazy to go queue

im on about chapter 6 too i think.

may I say something in spoiler?

IT WONT GIVE ANYTHING AWAY
at all ^.^

I hope >.>

noooooooo not yet!
the urge is too hard to resist!
save it a week

hehehe fine

I allowed the gay mistress to tell me of one death

not a major one,

but still. kinda sad ;-;

I'm so jeaulous!!!! I have to wait until the translation ... Cause I don't know all the specific names J.K.Rowling invented in english =( ...

I've been reading those books since I was 11 ... I was totally in love with the first book, al thanks to my Dutch teachter who lend it to me ...

Man, I will totally ignore everything that has to do with HP for a few months more ... sigh ...

Normally I don't care about spoilers ... but for HP ... I do, I ran to the television the other day cause they just mentioned HP ... to turn it off ...

Anyway if this thread will include spoilers after you've read the english version ... Could there be a warning in the threadtitle?

... Lucky people who have the book now!

dont worry! we'll haff warnings! =D

i think i might know who you are talking about...but DONT SAY ANYTHING.
I have already verbally abused a real life friend!

sssssssh im reading <<<
