Hogwarts RPG Name: Ottery St. Catchpole Third Year | Borrowing is all well and good, but get your own copies... Paris & Kellybear r luv :Read Otty 's fics:Gone With the Wind:I♥Rupert I'd like to think they all borrowed Ootp, and thought it was so good they went out and bought books 1 through 4, which is maybe why they're not there?

Well, yes, from a library LOL.
And Ottery, there's only one book, it's not a list so that's why the other Potters aren't mentioned.

My friends all used to borrow my copies...
They used to take so long, that I started to miss the books...
So in the end I stopped lending them...

I know I borrowed mine before I got my copy  Like I was really going to wait 1 whole month to read it...lol.
I won't be borrowing it this time, I have it pre-ordered so I should get it quite early! *happy dance*

Ottery, i dont see whats so wrong about borrowing the series. I have been borrowing them since when they first came out, just in January i bought OOTP. I borrowed it because i wanted to read it as soon as it came out and not pay a hefty price, well i have been waiting a few years for the price to go down, but anyway, the library is there for you to use it.
