YAY! I thought it will be on the 7th too. What's 14 more days of waiting anyway. I am so excited for book 7 but at the same time, I'm also dreading it. It's going to be the last one.

This is wonderful news!!! I think I'm going to have to pre-order it too like Harlot. Goodness, now that we finally have a date to look forward to, I'm already feeling the dreadful anticipation. July needs to come quickly!

Harlot said...
Oh wow, CJ, I cannot believe that's Harry! OMG LOL. Have to admit, he is looking goooood...
Sometimes even when i see him growing up each HP movie, i still see him as that little cute boy in HP1. Look at him here. Love that pic. Well, i think i'll post some of that promo pics later. ;) Thanks CJ!

I went to Amazon to look for the book and there is Scolastic's HC edition and then there's Scolastic's DELUXE HC edition. Besides the price, what's the difference?

Harlot said...
CJ, LOL. Well, i think it'll be, what? 3-4 more years before we see HP7 on the big screen? :P Must be so unfair for Daniel but some part of me agrees with you. I mean, i feel dirty just looking at those pics! LOL Well not really dirty, but.. it's like looking at half naked pics of my little brother, who happens to be the same age as Daniel.. gah.. :/

Harlot said...
Oh. I have the same question as Izzie. What's the difference between the normal HC and the deluxe edition?
Btw, the UK edition sucks. LOL

I have the deluxe edition of Half-Blood Prince. As much as I love it, there's no way I'm getting another deluxe edition because it's just a waste of money (in my opinion). Unless you're a serious collector that is. The deluxe edition includes added illustrations and a slipcase.

Harlot said...
Thanks Ladybug, I do love those illustrations by Mary GrandPré. So pretty... But, er, as much as i love HP, $65? :/

So for the past several week I have listen to and read all 6 Harry Potter books, in a row. Now I am awaiting #7 like everyone else.
I am very mad at the following...
*SPOILER ALEART*
1. Snape is such a fucker. Get over childhood drama! What a wanker.
2. Sirus Black was killed and I was very sad.
3. Hermione and Ron... why are they both SO dumb and don't realize they are in love but they, well at least Hermione, notices every little emotion between Harry and Cho or Harry and Ginny.
4. Dumbledor DIES?!? WTF?!? That is not even cool! Grrr.
Now #7 and I am crawling out of my skin to get it! I HATE reading series, unless they are concluded, for this reason. I'm mad at myself for not waiting until June to start these books so I wouldn't have to wait for the conclusion.
P.S. I liked the books so much that I just ordered all 4 movies. When do you think they will make the other 3? Do you think they will make the other 3?

GWB, believe me, boys ARE stupid, I'm surrounded with them. As for the movies, they will surely make the other 3.
I'm sad that book 7 will be the last HP. But I guess even Harry has to end some time... :(
