im waiting until i finish goblet of fire, which should be like a year 'cuz it's too freaking long. i was thinking of lifting the book from our library since i work there and they don't put any sensors in the back where we go to card out for the day.

I've already read the whole series and I really wanna get the 5th one. But I don't think it's in paperback yet. And I remember the Goblet of Fire hardback, like, $26, but the paperback was 'bout $9. If it's gonna be in paperback, I'd buy it.
Harry Potter is kiddie ####. I cant believe how many adults read that crap.

I drove by last nite after work to see lots of fools waiting in line at midnight to get a damn book. Harry Potter or not, who waits in line for a stupid book you're not going to be able to read right away because you're going to fall asleep? The book will be there the next morning, you stupid fanatic kids. :rolleyes:

Im sorry but to me it is ridiculous how much attention this book is getting. Me and my friends were driving around and we saw at Barn's and Noble's they were having a Harry Potter party...sad :(

A Harry Potter party? Well, I gotta see that... Anyways, I'm not much of a Harry Potter fan since Terry introduce me into it. That's all for now...
My brother went to a harry potter party last night at the library. I just wanted to kick his ass.

No homophobic language on the forums. This is your first warning.

not if every other kid is waiting in line to get it the night before. that's why they're there. because they know that if they're not the one's waiting in line, then someone else will, and there will be no more books left. most bookstores probably sold out of harry potter pretty quickly.
meheh i like the series, but what the movies are doing to book 3, i wanna kill the new director for >< (okay...so they're only rumors...but still!)

i heard rumors that they were taking out quidditch, including oliver wood (don't tell me how they can do that....), that they were cutting entire chapters out that were practically essential to the plot. if they manage to succeed in this, the movie's gonna suck.

I hate Harry Potter. Have you seen how big the book is? Its bigger than a dictionary. On the news, some 6 year old said HE is going to read the whole book in 3 weeks. I couldnt read the whole book in 3 months. :rasberry:

there was an article in the paper about harry potter and how one store was having a hillary clinton book signing at the same time, and that they expected more people would show up for harry potter. the book store was also expected to be flooded with a hell of a lot of people, and one of the managers said he was taking a vacation that evening :P
i am convinced jk rowling has no life. how else would she come up with a 900 page book?

Greed. More she writes, the more she sells, the more she makes. but everything still feels the same. the more you hurt, the more you strain, the price you pay to play the game. then all you see, and all you gain, and all you step on without shame. there are no rules, no one to blame, the price to play the game.
well, it kinda fit :D

they're actually not alike except for the fact that apparently they're both fads. harry potter lasted a LOT longer than pokemon, though, and actually got adults involved. i hear book 5 is really good and makes ya cry >< i wanna read it but i don't wanna find out who dies!

personally, i couldn't give a crap who dies. i hope they'd all die. there's no sense guessing who dies, for the spoiler isn't going to be posted here.
