| | |  HBP pre-orders surpass OotP
Amazon have now received 800,000 pre-orders for ' Half-Blood Prince'. This surpasses ' Order of the Phoenix' which received 789,000 in total.
Amazon also note that pre-orders for the book should be made before July 11th if fans wish to receive the novel on the day of the release.

Mine's been pre-ordered at a local bookstore for quite some months now. Although it could be that the bookstore pre-ordered all the orders they got from Amazon, and they receive them on that day nevertheless. So technically, I'd still be getting it from Amazon.  | |

Well, HBP it comes out in romanian on Dec 24th; but I can't wait that long... And I heard that a library from another town will get the english version on July 16th. I'm so confused... don't know what to do... | |

True, it didn't arrive on the exact date(I think), but if I remember well it arrived about next day or 2 days later.
I guess it's better than waiting till December? Did you check if Amazon can send the package to you?

Wow that is a lot of pre-orders, lol. I did pre-order the Order of the Phoenix or Goblet of Fire (can't remember which one) but then I figured since most of the people are pre-ordering, there will be a lot of copies in stock at the store. So I figure I'll just buy The Half-Blooded Prince when it comes out

I've had mine pre-ordered for... I dunno, about a month. My local bookstore's throwing a big thing the day it comes out, so I'll probably go to that.
