I wouldn't be able to wait THIS long... I hope they like the book (they probably are but still...  )

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

It's awesome that they finally released it here. We've been waiting for so long and couldn't hardly wait to it. That sucks that it came out so late but as Ewelina and Kasia said before: the translation is very good and I think that waiting was worth reading it. Now I can see the book laying on the desk but I have to do homework  and I told myself not to read before I finish my hw.
But I already know that Snape is a HBP and that Dumbledore will die... I din't want to know it before reading the book but it was extremely hard to avoid it when I'm on the site like this everyday  So I know two most interesting (I guess) parts in book but it's still cool to read it. And I'm dieing of curosity what Malfoy wants to do... |

I'm Polish, too and I'm extremely happy 
I mean I've already read the English version but it didn't prevent me from buying the Polish one. And it's really weird now to understand every single word in the book |

I'm from Poland and I'm sorry to say it, but Polish translation is HORRIBLE!! I know an English version by heart, and I'm simply unable to read Polish one. There are mistakes... Huge mistranslations... I mean - of course, Polkowski (our translator) gotta know English language, but I've noticed that he has translated some sentences really lousy... I'm so disapointed, and I'm really sorry for all those people, who can't read it in original version.... :/

But some sentences or names just cannot be translated JUST as they are written in the English version.
I really like the translation, Polkowski is good at it, besides he does not work alone.
