So if you're a BIG Harry Potter fan you'd have known that the 8th book came out about 2 weeks ago - concurrent with the start of the play in London (SO JEALOUS!!).
Since I've been reading Harry Potter since my age was still a single digit basically, of course I was one of those who put in a pre-order for the book. This was back in March.
About two days before the launch date - I got a call from Borders informing of the pick-up time (this was also the same day as my first Flycycle class btw). So I was super excited to pick it up (they said between 7AM - 10AM, hence why I woke up at 8AM).
That night when I went for dinner I started reading, but I went thru it too fast and decided to stop and save it for my (then) upcoming PD trip (which is a story for another day). BEST. DECISION. EVER. MADE.
THIS was my view for the entire time I was reading the book (well I also read in between lunch - and who says no to food?!).
That Sunday I carried the book everywhere - to the pool, to the restaurant and back to the pool, until I finished it.
I basically told my friends "Guys, for the rest of the day, I'm going to be in my own zone, until I finish the book". And I did so in 4 hours :"( I WISH THE BOOK NEVER ENDSSSSSSSSSSSS!
By the time it ended, I was itching to talk to someone about the book and fangirl all over it. I even went to work the following week and asked if anyone had read the book (no one finished it yet.. pfft!). Finally, after 4 days, Cik P caught up.
p/s; Spoilers alert. For those planning to read it, please turn away NOW.
Haaaa... Legaaaaaaa!
Now, to restart everything back from book #1!!!!!!
