Me too, Wargod. I'm wondering if Rowling will write anything else after HP.

I hope so. All she's done to get kids to love reading it'd be a shame if she didn't.

I seem to remember her saying that she will probably write under an alias since anything else she pens will be compared to the Potter series. Makes me wonder if she already has other works *out there*. I have a question I hope she answers in #7 that doesn't directly impact the resolution of the story itself. Where is James Potter's family? Sirius mentions how much time he spent at their house when James was alive, Sirius also notes how most of the pure-blood wizards are related.

I still find it intersting that nothing is ever said about Harry's grandparents. Apparently at least on Jame's side they were all magical people. I don't know if this has been left a deliberate mystery or if it is just something Rowling has never addressed.

I love those books! I was pretty late reading them so I was able to read them pretty much all at once and now I've been waiting for the last one.

Oh, sure you would get a head, I was going to tell everyone that you can pre-order the book, and comes out July 20. One step ahead huh Cnd. When is the next movie coming out?

I got an e-mail from Amazon today to pre-order. You can also get the first 6 in a set for a discounted price of I think it was $32.00 (reg. $50). Jimmer, I didn't start reading them until the third or fourth one was out and it was only because I had ordered some stuff for Travis and they sent me the first one in paperback for free. I would never have bought it otherwise as it's not my normal type of read.

Thanks, and Mamie good luck for trying to get the book on that day, that why I pre-order because I don't want to deal with a long line. Is that usually that the book and the movie coming out about the same time? Or was it done purposely.

I bet not on the day the next book is out. Trust me, I have seen the crowds of children & parents who want that last book look how much interest it is already causing.

I have never pre-ordered. When the last book came out I went to Walden's Books. There was a long line at the pre-ordered book pick up table out in the mall and no one was in the store. I went in the store and asked if they had any extras that hadn't been pre-ordered. Of course they did and I bought a hardback and a book on tape and was out of there in no time. There is one book store here who does a big block party at midnight the day of a Harry Potter book release. You can't even get close to that store.

I think I've only pre-ordered once for a HP book. The rest of the time, I just walk right into the store. Book 5 I bought at Costco the day it came out and it wasn't any worse crowd wise than it normally is. The other times I went to Walden the days they came out, walked right in and right back out with my book. When the last one came out, I remember going to Walmart after going to Waldens to get the book and they had a pallet sitting in the middle of an aisle that had stacks and stacks and stacks of the book.
