I finally got the book!! At walmart :lol: i'm so happy. I still don't get how people can read that book in one day, it's so fucking long, but hey...good for them. I can't wait to start reading it.


i know what you mean. i was reading this one girls diary on teenopendiary.com, and she was saying how she'd finished it already! she stayed up all night just to finish it....i mean, i thought i was a crazy fan.....

I don't know. I'm not a very good speller either . . . :?

But I loved that book!  I read it in 6th grade, so of course, everyone thought I was strange . . .I read it again last year, and I picked up on whole lot more.

exactly. i love those kinds of books, where everything's connected and everytime you read it you get something different out of it. much like The Giver, also on my 'favorites' list.

Question: I know that some of you are from the UK, so maybe you can answer this for me: there are many sayings in this book that i'm not quite sure of....such as

"Are you taking the mickey?"

i was just wondering what this means. there are others that i cant remember....

Taking the Mickey is like taking the piss, not taking things seriously?

and Geroff is 'Get Off' but its how a lot of people say it here when you're kinda fed-up, thats so weird cos i just got back from holiday and we were discussing that!

the beginning is kind of confusing and there's alot happening....but it keeps you guessing, and, like the past four books, it all makes sense in the end. there's even some stuff explained from the past books that play and important role in the plot. and, being the nerd that i am, i'm going to go back and read again it was so good!

And when you finish with HP, here's a really good book to read:  The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I forget who the author is, but it's really really good. some other good books are Pure Sunshine, and Cut. Both books are by this company called PUSH, and they publish all books written by young authors.
