Book was good.

Personally I wouldn't want my neices reading it until they are a little bit older due to some of the deaths in the book but overall a good ending to the series.

Though I feel the final bit was a bit rushed.

Sadly I don't think I'll be able to even get a copy for another month or so... Due to stupidly high prices and the fact that I can buy it cheap later and still enjoy it just as much. And if people tell me how it ends... Well I'll just kick them in the head a little. Besides, how you get to the ending is just as important as the ending itself...
*sigh*

Interesting how book shops know that the book will sell like cup cakes and took advantage of it. They all jack up the price from $60 to $210. And yet people still buy the book. Me included. :D

210 dollars? I mean, sure I like HP, not as much as other fantasy novels, and definently not enough to pay 210 for it when its like 17 or 16 bucks at wal-mart.

P.S. I think the Half-Blood Prince was my favorite in the series, also if inquirering minds want to know, I havent read the 5th book, so I'd really like to see the movie soon.

Really? I know people who ordered it from Asda for that, but I didn't know if they kept the price... Wow... I actually have to go there now.

</font>[/QUOTE]Divide that number by 3 and you'll get the US dollar figure. Over here, things tend to get a bit expensive.

Ordered it from Amazon in advance, but took advantage of free shipping... which meant "whenever" shipping.

It arrived Tuesday... in the middle of a three-day camping trip. Needless to say, I wasn't there to pick it up... :(

Fortunately, our friends' son had a copy that he was reading through... only being 9, he didn't want to read it while sitting at the beach.

I did... and with time off for lunch and hiking up a sand dune multiple times, finished it by 6:30PM.

Nicely done... and came home to my own copy in the mailbox, which my daughter is now reading. Life is good :D
