    Anyone up for a Potter bookoff?

    So I'm waiting with baited breath for the last installment of Harry Potter. I'm sure I'm not the only one of the board who plans on getting it and reading as soon as they can get their hands on it. Thought it might be interesting to see who's the fastest reader on Poly to read through it first and write the official Apolyton Harry Potter review. The only problem with that is that some people will get it sooner then others.

    I'm anxious to see who dies in this one.

    A bookoff?

    I've heard of ****off, pissoff, jackoff, but never a bookoff.

        In any, or just the bookoff?
        I know you just have to piss someone off, so that one isn't included for sure.

          I'm always game to piss someone off.

          But I'll be on my honeymoon when Book 7 is released, so I shant be reading it until I return.

              Your priorities are backwards.

                Could I write a review without reading the book? I could do that.

                    What, do you plan to talk to your wife while you're recharging between bouts? Even so, you could discuss the book when you talk. Or listen to books on tape.

                        Somehow, I doubt I'll be finding a copy in St. Lucia on the day it is released; however, upon my return to Ohio, it should be waiting for me, courtesy of Amazon.

                              I can read very fast, and I plan on going to a midnight release, and I don't have work that day. That should mean I'll be among maybe the first handful of people on the US Eastern seaboard to finish it. Plenty of Brits should be able to beat me, though.
