Yeah... The movies has a lot to do with that too. I didn't start reading until after I saw the first 2 movies. Then I read PoA/GoF/OotP/PS/CoS (in that order hehe) so the movies sort of encouraged people to read the books too (worked with me! Because I know the books are better than the movies)... And now, the much awaited HBP, it's been what, like 2 yrs since OotP came out?? We're all going through withdrawal, so we all can't wait!!! | |

YES!!!
I knew it would be...I mean look how excited every member of this site is...this site isn't the whole HP world, I got alot of friends who are into HPbut arn't members of this site...some of them think they are too old for the site...some just can't be bothered to hear all the news coz they think it ruins the excitement...
I guessed it would be the biggest yet...and at last I was right!!!

I am beyond excited... still 4 1/2 months though *sigh*. But imagine, it's a huge deal already and we're that far away! Hope they don't run out, but then again, I'm not too worried. Smart 'ole me already reserved a copy (like I'm sure you all have, LOL.)

I thought about pre-ordering I did with the OOTP, it came around 11AM the day it was released. But this time I'm half tempted to go to one of the midnight parties and buy it so I can start reading. What do you think?

I'm not surprised! I pre-ordered mine less than a week after we all found out the release date! My mom thought I was insane- but she always does, so it doesnt really matter, lol. I'm so itching for this book...
