I haven't slept in 24 hours. I'm taking a nap as soon as Lillybet's mum comes.

I own the Half-Blood Prince! But it's actually proved much more tempting than I thought.

So!

Should I

A) Forego the re-reading of the other books and dive straight into HBP

or

B) Re-read the other books

All answers appreciated!



My eyes hurt.

You should pull a sicky! It is quite big! I was well impressed.

It's good then?

Great...all I can say is regarding the end of chapter 7....ouch you bastard I felt that. This might sound awful but I hope he dies. I also have a theory over who the HBP is....

Get stuck in! I got back from the midnight opening and read until 2.... Then got up at 7 for work o_O;; The first chapter kindly rehashes the other books for you anyway ;P

Late reply, decided to do without internet until it'd finished book so I didn't end up spoiling myself...

The answers yes. With a little meh on the side....

It arrived today. I'm going to be reading it aloud, so I have a /schedule/ to read it on, of all things, but I may well read ahead. It depends honestly on whether you crave the thing drawn out, or taken straight on.

Do you like to let your curiousity build gradually? Or do you like to drink in the experience like it was water and you were dying of thirst?

I crave both! I'm greedy like that. I know it's probably better for me to re-read the other books but once I got it home I was like...'Oh my gods, this is it. This is really the 6th book...Crap!'

My brother convinced me saying; "well, you've seem to know the books and you know what happened? You have read them all? Then go for it."

I think I'm going to read it.

Yes yes yes yes read it read it read it read it XD

I thought about re-reading for about all of the first page, and then I was lost.
So much utterly more readable than the last one,
even if it does have a characteristic Rowling typo.. Gotta hate when your glasses get fug on them, huh?
*snickers*

But seriously. Read o.o;
