Woohoo! Got my hands on Harry Potter 7 last night. I was surprised it was available so quickly at my local library. I had pre-requested it several weeks ago and assumed I was around #1000-something on the request list and would never actually get it (that's how the Palo Alto library seemed to work for popular titles). But lo and behold, only a week and a half after its release, I got an e-mail from the library that the book was mine for pickup. Impressive. Apparently they got lots of copies and people have just been devouring the book and returning it quickly.
I got through about 280 pages over 4 hours or so of reading last night. Action-packed! Do I really have to work today??? I considered calling in sick so I could spend the day reading instead, but I'd already told my assistant yesterday that I was picking up the book so I thought she might get suspicious :P
I definitely plan on buying the whole series now that it's complete and re-reading from beginning to end. I've forgotten some things since reading #6 (shocker), but that's OK. More good reading to look forward to.
