How many times have u read the books?

Which one is your favorite so far. Are they getting even better as the characters develop over time?

How much did it cost y'all to pre-order with shipping so it gets to you the day its released? I heard it was like $21 on amazon.com...I'd look but I'm too lazy right now. I think I'll wait until my sister pre-orders it. She usually can read a book in less then 3 hrs...she's fast. Then I'll probably borrow it since it takes me forever.

lol. nice, my parents are probably going to be fighting to get the book away from me. Ill probably try and read realllly fast. and then read it over and over again. The fifth book took me about 3 hours to read, but i kept it and pretended it was taking me longer so that i could re-read it over and over again.

i've read each book at least 10 times. sometimes i just get the sudden urge to read the whole series and then other times i want to read a certain chapter, depending on my mood. but i'm weird like that.

We can order it from a bookstore and then pay the normal price on the day we pick it up. I'm not exactly sure how much it'll be.

I'm picking my copy up from Wal Mart! It's one of the two places in town that's selling it. sad.

I've read to books so many times I've lost count and I've basically memorized them. It would be pathetic, except nothing about Harry Potter can be pathetic.

I live in a very small town. there's like 7,500 people or something. when we want something, we usually go to Olympia. I got OotP at the Barnes and Noble there. Wal Mart and this other small bookstore downtown are the only places selling it. I'm getting copy from Wal Mart because it's cheaper, no one's going to think to go there, and my step-sister works there. Plus, the sooner I get it, the sooner I can start reading it!
