I am so excited! I was the first person to call the local Barnes & Noble to preorder HBP.

In case you can't get to any of the links or if you don't have access to a credit card, the call you local B&N or Borders, they can preorder it too, but for some reason the can't do it by title, you have to use the ISBN No. 0439784549. I guess it's a glitch in their computer system.

Now I am just waiting on July! I'll re-read OTP in June, so I can just pick up on the new story.

Wahoo!

Wow, that's amazing. Pre-ordering this early. I think I'll have to pre-order my copy as well. That way, I'll be able to get my book right away if there's a release party for the book. Oh goody.

Nuh-uh. *shakes head* I'm NOT pre-ordering. There is absolutely no guarantee that I would get HBP on the day it came out, and that would make me very mad. Instead I am going to the grocery store to get it, because they always carry newly released books but no one ever thinks to look there...

HBP, here I come!

I would get so annoyed if I pre-ordered because I'd bewaiting outside for the book to come in the morning...it'd drive me nuts. I would much rather go to Wal-Mart where I can get it for about $15.00

I will try to go pick up my copy at midnight, that is if my Husband would mind watching the kids long enough for me to go to the store, Better yet I could make him drive me and then I can read the book on the way home in the car and stay up all night long reading it while it is quiet in my house ,

I pre-ordered my copy. Amazon is pretty good- I got my POA DVD from them just 1 day after release. It will be hard to wait for it, but I imagine unless I stand in lines at the stores early in the AM, I may never be able to get a copy. They sell out so fast.
