So the book is coming out July 21, 2007. I cannot WAIT to read it.
In other news, I’ve read that the average sale price is going to be $36+ for the basic version. Well, if you follow the link I’ve provided in my left sidebar, you can pre-order it from Amazon.com for only $18.99 plus shipping. I pre-ordered it and added on one extra thing and basically got TWO things for less than the $36 price AND I didn’t have to pay shipping (by having my order go over $25).
So if you want Harry Potter, and if there’s something else on your wishlist that you’ve needed an excuse to buy, then I suggest you click on the link to the left and do your ordering!!
You know what I’d love? If the release of Harry Potter coincides with the Blogathon. I’d post for 24 hours about Harry Potter and post every half hour about what I’ve just read. That won’t last the whole 24 hours (I tend to read faster than that), but I could also watch the movies and perhaps even read the other books and have a 24 hour Potter-fest!
You know, I pre-ordered the last HP book from amazon, and I vowed never to do so again. The reason being, I didn’t receive the book until 2 days after it hit the shelves. So, Ieverywhere I went, I saw all these 10-year olds avidly reading HP, while I waited impatiently for my copy! However, with the price advantage you pointed out in this post, I may have to retract this vow.
Oooh, precioussss. I may have to pre-order it myself.
That is a blogathon that I could totally get behind.
