I'm in the middle of the 20th chapter. I got it yesterday, read it all day and am in love. According to my mom, I was sleeping, she came to get it (I had it under my pillow) and I growled at her. I know when I got it back, I curled up with it. :) I got the book at about 12:45 yesterday night. :D

I woke up at 6AM this morning to walk to my local grocery store and buy the 6th book. I'm only up to chapter 2 but the whole book is really anticipating!

It's shorter than the last two tho. Correct if I'm wrong, but I beilieve the order for longest to shortest book is now,

Order of the Phoenix>Goblet of Fire>Half Blood Prince>Prisoner of Azkaban>Chamber of Secrets> Sorceror's Stone.

The book looks great and I'm very excited to get farther into it. But first, there's the [censored] summer reading.

That is the order. I checked. Has anyone heard the rumor that J.K. Rowling killed someone off. I cried when she killed off Sirus last book.

Grrrrr, I'm in a book club at my library, so I have those books, I have the books I got from the library and I have a book group for the school I have to do. Then there's Eragon and Naruto I still have to read even though I got them awhile ago and still haven't read...So many books, so little time. Oh yeah, and I read Cordila's Honor so I have to read the rest of that series. At least I don't have to start that book report on an author yet...

Yes, they did kill someone off this time, and I was shocked to believe who it was. :shock:

I started crying when I read the last couple chapters and found out who it was. I was even more shocked to find out who killed him. :shock: :cry:

I never thought she would kill off *him* though. I thought it might be someone else but never him. The ending chapter was so sadly good. Although, I must say, the couples (except for Won-won and L.), were really cute. :)

I loved the book till I got to the end. Chap 29 pissed me off and 30 gave a sense of cheesyness (if thats a word). If I could ask JK one question it would be "Why". Now I have to wait till Oct. 11 for my next book. Then I have to start watching for the next HP Book #-o . How many are left in the series?

Actually there is one book left and according to mugglenet.com it will not be out for another two years. she's supposed to start writing it the end of this year. i didn't really think the end was cheesy (and yes it is a word) i thought the overall feel of the book was melancholy though. it is a shame we have to wait for more people to finish the book before we can discuss it properly.
