So, we ordered our copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows online and didn’t get the guaranteed same-day shipping. So, unlike the rest of what seems like the world, I won’t be reading it until probably Wednesday. I’m considering using some of my vacation time to make sure that I get a chance to read it on that day, because I’m beginning to feel just a little impatient, now that the time is actually here.
edit: Amazingly enough, it actually did come on Saturday. I finished it Tuesday morning, however, because we didn’t realize it was sitting in the package box at our mailbox post, and didn’t pick it up until later.
I had that exact same problem with the fifth book. Except my book was supposed to be guaranteed for delivery the day it came out. The rest of my family had already read it and started discussing it before I got it. I feel your pain.
