It's Over...
The end of an era. I just finished the last Harry Potter book.
Yes, we were there at midnight Friday to get our copy of "The Deathly Hallows" at the release party.
And ever since I have been in a magical trance, reading until my eyes blurred beyond comprehension. I don't know if I've ever read 600+ pages in a day and a half before.
A day and a half. Not counting time to get much-needed shopping done.
Not counting time to make meals.
Not counting laundry, dishes and taking-care-of-pets time.
But now it's over. I know what happens.
Oh don't worry, I won't divulge it here. All I can say is that JK pulled out all the stoppers; all the tricks in her bag, all the action, suspense, humor and tears.
And I am glad.
So glad to have experienced it all.
Thank you Ms Rowling. It was an incredible ride.

Reading it right now.
Oh dear - I *really* hope my daughter's gets delivered to her at camp before she leaves. I told her she was taking a chance, but I'm not sure what we'll do if it gets there after she's left!!!
Wow you rock! That is a lot of reading! I can't wait to get to it myself!
Ah.........this is what Productive is! Buffallo Chicken is like buffalo wings....he used the sauce on boneless breasts....cooked...& chopped it up onto a big salad. It was very good.
LOL - you and my daughter both - she spent all weekend holed up in her room reading!
My hubby finished it too.. loved it!
Well, you and a few others I'm sure! I know some kids that are finished too! Did you enjoy the ending?? Don't want to know what it is, but have heard mixed reviews!
Wow! Your are incredible. I don't think I could read 600+ pages in less than 2 days. That is awesome.
I usually read my Harry Potters in a couple of days, but haven't had time to get properly stuck into book 7 yet :(
Isn't it funny that the US book is over 700 pages. Do they have larger type or did we Canucks get the "Reader's Digest Abridged Edition"???
J/K, but it is weird that it varies so by country (and not just the cover art).
Yea! I finished mine in just under two days!
I dind't know Canada got the same covers as England. I was abit thrown when your picture looked different than my book.
