I can't believe that people were qeueing up outside Hammicks in luton last night. Poor kids. Having abuse hurrled at them by the drunken townies leaving the pubs. Bloody savages in this town.

That's harsh :/

There is nothing that would make me queue up at that time of night to wait and buy it.

As much as I love the HP books (and I really do, believe me) there was no way in hell I'd have done that. I just walked into Tesco in town this morning and picked up my copy from the pile they had sitting just inside the front doors on their display.

£9.97 too, which considering its RRP is £16.99 is quite nifty (and I am aware that Woolies et al were selling it at a similiar price).

whata so great about Harry Potter anyway?

I tried to read it, and tbh, it was fucking shite

there's loads of better authors out there, but they dont have the same lifestory as Rowling, so the media ignores them and they get little recognision

For pete's sake, these books are written for children. As such they are great. 'nuff said.

Besides, in an age where books and reading have lost the war against TV for young minds, Harry Potter's life story has done massive good.

I started reading one of the books and found it well written, but the viewpoint was too young for me. (refer to my previous point!) I have also seen the first two films. We took my ex-girlfriend's youngest (10). I didn't rate the experience, but he loved them

Oh, btw, please move this to the 'books' forum', thanks!

I believe BBC News wrote who died on their website. True or not, I don't know.

 

[old.tRoG]

Woe be me, I ordered it. It'll arrive next week, sometime.

WEll thats a bit of a cop-out, the person who dies.


Blatantly leaves it open for said person to come back later imo.

ASDA got it for £8.97

 

[old.Fweddy]

A guy I work with booked the weekend off to read this. Weird...

I told everyone who bought it off me that LOTR's better.

heh, nice one

Hmm. People say you're a Bodhi wannabe but I notice you have the same hair as me, got a custom title on the same day as me AND now you're preffering the same books as me.

Are you a closet Fweddy wannabe? Because that's ok if you are, I just want to be clear on it.

TBH, it's too big a business for Rowling to kill off a main character, if you think about it. If she writes a final book next year, she would definatly leave it open for returns. If for some reason when she is 70, has spent all her money, you can guarentee a release of 'HARRY POTTER RETURNSSS!!!!', just to get more pennies in the bank. It's to big for her to not milk it for all it's worth, and be honest, who wouldn't? People would buy *anything* with the Harry Potter name on it :\
