Arriving

Wonderful, marvellous. I laughed, I cried and all the cliches that go with it. I just can’t believe that it is over.

Best laugh of the night. The cashier asking for my surname to find my reserved copy. The shock when I handed my card over to pay and he realised that my surname actually is Potter!

Best moment of the night/morning. Sitting on the patio and reading the final few chapters as the sun came up.

Plate

It’s been a wonderful journey.

    Most embarrassing moment of the night: cashier asking your name and you forgetting both the connotations of your reply and how loud you are!
    Glad you enjoyed it, though where’s the pic I took of you receving your book??!!

    I guess you must have spent much of today sleeping! Must go and buy it myself although I don’t think I could ever read a book that quickly.

    I don’t think I could ever stay up all night to read although I have often tried only to awaken with the book on my lap.

    Yes, end of an era. I am still catching up on my sleep! Still not finished the book either. My goodness J.K. is a genius.

    I really enjoyed this book… but it took me a little longer to read (couldn’t/ wouldn’t stay up all night & had a hubby who wouldn’t let me off living to read. Shame.
    I think she’ll write another one, sometime soon.

    I wanted to read all night too but my husband convinced me to go to bed b/c I tend to get sick if I stay up too late (I went to bed at 3 am and read all the next day). I think I am in still HP mourning since the series has ended and I don’t know what to do with myself.

    I canĀ“t wait to read mine. I have to finish some work because I know that when I start to read it I can’t stop. It’s sad… the last book.

    I loved the book too! I don’t think I could stay up to read all night anymore, I love my sleep too much :)

    I had the urge to devour this wonderful last book in one day as you did. Instead, I drew it out and made it last as long as possible. But I was still awfully sad when I finished it!
