Some of you many wonder... Dragon... How? Well, I work at a library and there are 7 issues of the book in a bin in the back room. At the end of the shift, I just had to pick up the book and look at it. On the back are weird lights in the sky and 3 people looking at them... MUST FIND OUT WHAT THEY ARE! And I just had to look at the inside. One of the chapters is called Voldemort's Request, or something along those lines. And then I read the first sentence. I can't remember it all, but something to do with midnight.
I know this won't help alot of you with the waiting of 1 day! But I just had to say something!
You may all now hate me if you wish.

And, I hope I don't get in trouble for that, since its against the law...
I won't tell you don't. Its not like I read the first chapter...

*flicks wand threateningly* You'll pay... don't think you wont pay!! They have the back on Mugglenet. It MAY be a spoiler (May... what am I thinking?), so, if you don't want to see the back before buying the book, then don't click on this: www.mugglenet.com/viewer/?image_location=hbpbackcover1.jpgI got my ticket in line for the book. Got it at 10:30, and I was already number 63 in line. Insane, no? |

Lol at my store you have to pay for the book before hand, then they give you a ticket/voucher thing saying you payed and can get the book.
So that the night all you have to do is hand them the voucher and they hand you the book.
It all goes a lot faster

all the book reservations where at hastings here.. and they just had you pay 5 bucks in advance and then you get the book and pay the rest(you have a giftcard type thing)

Here, at Barnes and Nobles, you go in and get your name on the reservation list with no deposit. Well, there was like a party with trivia and wand makings and what not and they give you a card upon check in with a number (the number of books you're buying) so you go in line and give them your card and you pay them and they give you the book all at midnight.

My mom went to Shop Ko on the 16th & they had plenty of copies.. no lines or anything. I suppose it would've been worse if we had gone at midnight..
