Bad fans form an orderly queue here... ;)

Even reading my friendslist, I'm wondering how much chance I have of remaining unspoiled for Book 7 (which is what I'm going to call it since I can't be bothered typing everything else), but then I remembered that I haven't actually pre-ordered it. And apparently the release date order deadline from Amazon passed at midnight last night. Oops. And the chances of me spending more than the Amazon-mandated price of £9 for the thing are slim to none, since I don't think I've ever paid full hardback prices for anything.

*shrugs*

Considering that JKR has probably done bad things to all the characters I like to imagine having hot sex with one another, I'm not sure I want to know. Particularly since I already need to rearrange the contents of my bookshelves because stuff is piling up again and a 600+ page hardback doesn't help with that.

Of course, it doesn't help that I don't actually want to go to work today because Telanu has finally finished her lengthy and extremely excellent 'Tea' series and I'd much rather be re-reading all that and reading the new one before my OTC meets a (speculated) grisly end.

Oh, but you could go and buy it at midnight. It would be kind of nice except for the price, that is.

I'll have to spend around 20 euros, because it's an import. Luckily FNAC is nice enough to have tons of books so we don't run out, but I might go and pre-order one just in case.

I'm not going at night because all my friends are outside Barcelona and we want to buy together, but I already know what I am going to do next Saturday, even if I haven't been very excited about this and I'm pretty sure some of my favourite characters are going to die.

Right now the thing that would leave me satisfied is dead Harry. *g*

Apparently I stand a reasonable chance of picking it up cheaply at the supermarket? You could always avoid the internet and walk around with your fingers in your ears till you come over to London... ;)
