[PoconoPragmatist]

but don't expect too speedy a reply, I am going to be busy reading for a while. Promise I won't spoil it for anyone!

1. Why bother?

:shrug:

[realisticphish]

3. because they like the book

perchance?

[Breeze54]

4. Who's 'they'? You said, "You, not 'they;"

[PoconoPragmatist]

5. Because

A - I got 40% off by buying it last night.

B - I get to read it before some creepazoid screws it for me by spoiling it.

2. Why are you posting here and not reading the spoilers I'm about to post?

Snape is killed by Samuel Jackson. Snapes on a plane is a shitty movie anyway.

6. I just waited in line 90 seconds for the new Harry Potter book.

:P My husband wanted to get it at midnight at Barnes & Noble, and we had a reserved copy waiting for us. However, we would have been in line at least two hours. We decided to go to Target at 9 AM today instead, and instead of paying cover price minus 20% at B & N, we paid $17.99 at Target. :woohoo: Hubby's reading it now, then I get my turn this afternoon. We're reading it in shifts.

7. Did you get it at Walmart?

[PoconoPragmatist]

8. Heavens NO!!

How could you even accuse me of such a thing?!?!

DEATH TO WALMART!!

I won't set FOOT inside a Wal-Mart until they start treating their employees better.

9. I obsessively read the whole thing last night, staying up till 4 am...

because I didn't want it to be spoiled for me by some douchebag :hi:

Enjoy the read, it's fantastic!

[PoconoPragmatist]

12. That's Why I Waited In Line To Get It ASAP

I don't want it spoiled for me by some douchebag, either! I'm about halfway thru now.

10. so, was everybody else buying other books too, as at my long line

on Friday night?

I was really enjoying seeing all that book buying.

[PoconoPragmatist]

13. Yes

And those of us waiting in line implored those who'd already gotten their books, and were passing us, on their way out, while we waited to get in...we implored them to plaease just let us TOUCH the book. Some were good-natured enough to allow this.
