I just bought a copy of Harry Potter
I got the next to last copy in the only place in our town that sells it - Walmart. The Christian bookstore isn't carrying it needless to say. :rofl:
Yes, I'm aware that this only confirms my nerdiness. See you in a few hours when I finish the book. ;)

1. Bad librul.
You're supposed to build a Costco out of palm fronds and scrap wood, practice lining up front to show them your card (making cards wouldn't hurt) and wait for the delivery trucks of cargo to arrive.

2. Does it really only take a few hours to read one of those?
That's not a book, that's a tabloid!

3. Depends on how motivated you are...
Close to 800 pages in a few hours - if Ava can do it in a few hours, she's a trooper!

But no spoilers, please. ginbarn's reading our copy, and I'm refreshing myself with Half-Blood Prince in the meantime.

7. I stopped at B&N to pick up a copy of the audiobook version and left in frustration
Found it at Target for $10 less, and have listened to the first few chapters so far. I'm ripping it into iTunes now so my iPod has it all.
