Well I got the book by post about one minute before my family and I left for our holiday in Italy
I only read about two or three chapters a day so I would have some of it till we returned home... also I didn´t want to take the book with me to the beach.... it took all my will power not to read more than three chapters a day. That was quite a testing of my resistance *lol*

It took me about 10 hours total, cause I resisted myself to read only an hour a day, it was so hard!

It took me to read Deathly Hallows 3 days, is a lot, but I had activities and things to do, and I couldn't wait to a more relaxed time to read it.

Considering I was on vacation when I got it, the reading spanned maybe three days, probably totalling 10 or 15 hours or so. I read it really quickly the first time and, really, I should have left it at that because I'm on the second indepth reading now and this book just hurts...and not in a good way.

My dad got it for me at the midnight release, so i woke up at 8:00 (on a saturday) and started reading. I finished it in 1 and a half days, becuase my parents MADE me eat, and i went and played football with my brother and a few of his friends because he promised to leave me alone after XD
i loved it by the way!!!!

I was very sad but it took me two days. I'm a super fast reader and I can usally finish in a night without stoping. HOWEVER when it came out I was at 'school camp' so I couldn't read it becuase I had classes and other things.

Then The next day I cried becuase I remembered this is the LAST book so I read it twice , in one day. AKA almost playing sick then diceading just not to do the work and read

I dunno. Probably around 14 hours. Possibly more as I'm a slow reader.

I got through this book in 7 hours. Mind you, I took no visitors, ate and drank nought and generally closed myself off to everything except Harry Potter. Meh...I think I made the right choice

It took about 5-6 hrs give or take a few, just cause I had to do my regular mommy duties that day, but i couldn't stop it was so gripping really. I am re-reading the whole series right now and when I get to DH it will make the 4th time I have read it, I actually started out with HBP like 2 months ago, until then I had not read any of the books I had just seen the movies with my children so this is the first time I have readt the first 3 books I'm on OOTP right now but I read that one once before.....the day i went to the library to get the books I hadn't read they only had a couple of them so I had to read them out of order.....I finnaly was able to get them all in order an I'm about half way through OOTP so I will be done with the series and will probably have to start all over again until the next sorting so I can keep myself occupied!!

8 hours. I'm in NZ and the release was at 11 in the morning and but I had basketball training so I had to pick it up two hours later. Didn't matter though! Everyone in the family understood my need to finish the book and left me alone the whole day.
