My husband is at work now (on Saturday) making sure his drivers (UPS) get the copies out today.

I however, am an idiot and I waited to long to get on the list at Barnes and Noble - the line for people without reservations was around the building at 9:00 last night.  I really don't care if I am one of the first to read it I just don't want Anyone to tell me what happens!!

My copy just came from Kroger's.  I was a dork and forgot to pre-order my copy like I did the last several books.  Anyway, Kroger's has a whole shelf full of the books.

Another way to read the book, borrow from the library. My local libraries have ordered 30 of them. When I placed on hold yesterday, it wasn't available, but this morning, I checked again, only 4 is available, but it's listed as "browsing"... But my position in the holds queue is 123 :(.

I walked into the Walmart in the town nearest us and was able to buy 2 with out having to wait in line. I have been outside all day mowing- have come in- taken a shower and now it is time to start reading. I read fairly fast- so I may be done within a few days... we all need to meet back here again when we are done with the book to see what we think about the last one.

So, the UPS guy just came with MY new Harry Potter book!!!  ;D ;D ;D
 
It was our regular guy, who I know pretty well.  So, I said to him, "I bet you are delivering a lot of these today."  He said that Harry Potter is ALL he is delivering today.  He doesn't usually work on Saturday.  They are paying 12 UPS guys double time today to do nothing but deliver Harry Potter books all day, and that's just in Gainesville alone.  He also said, "I see why that woman is one of the richest people in the world" and went on to tell me how people had been running out of their houses to meet him when they saw the truck pulling up and how one woman hugged and kissed him.

 :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

My hubby had to go to work today also!!  He was just saying about an hour ago how much extra work Harry Potter made for him this week!!

I haven't found a copy yet!!

Don't worry Tina.  I'm in the same boat but I have my copy here at the house and can't read it yet.  I actually started a book before my copy came in that is a loaner from someone at work.  So I want to get that one read and back in a timely manner.  So no one tell me what happens.  Well, really you can because I'm still going to read the book.  By the way, I read the last pages on every book that I pick up too.
