Angry Borrowing is all well and good, but get your own copies...

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...

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.
