Book 7 (no spoilers)

Okay, so I haven't even read any of the HP books, and I'm catching some of the hype/excitement. It's contageous!

I did watch the first two movies this week. I hadn't let the kids read the series for a long time, but now that Tim is going to be a high school senior, I thought it would be okay. So he read all six books in four months and has started catching up on the movie versions. We found a HP party at our local library, a gathering for fans to speculate before they rush to Barnes and Noble at midnight to buy their copy. Tim won't be buying a copy; he'll be on a waiting list to read a library copy. He's afraid of spoilers, especially since he probably won't be reading it for weeks after everybody else.

Meanwhile, the younger siblings are going to be watching a video at home with me while their big brother is at the library talking about a book series they're not allowed to read yet . . . Their day will come.

--------------------------------------------------

Update - Tim went to the party, which went on until midnight, when the library unveiled their three copies for patrons to check out. They did a drawing of those who were there to see who'd get the first three copies, and he won the drawing - and came home with a copy of the book!

We promise - no spoilers. :)
