Odd observations.

Just an interesting observation.  I see many copies of the Last Harry Potter book lately.  In each case the owners have removed the slip case and opted to read it with out that on.  Was the cover so abhorent?  The book's yellow and tan inner cover and thickness is distinctive.  No less that 8 copies seen in my normal daily life on Monday and on Tuesday there was about a dozen.  I only saw 3 on Saturday/Sunday due to the newness of the book and not being out and abouts much.  But all in all considering the limited number of people one crosses paths with it is an impressive showing and telling on how popular the modern-esk fantasy series is.

Hmm, interesting. Kinda a peach color with a yellow band as the cover. I wonder if someone somewhere was already commenting on the lemon thing. So there are many people unhappy about the epilogue. Well, I am sure I shall get around to it. It has been so long since I have read any of the books, I think that I shall have to start from the start to get everything. Then ofcourse Kim has not read any of the books and only has seen the movies. She is such a fast reader that she insisted on not reading any of the books until it was all out. I suppose it shall live on in fan fic. I hear that is more entertaining than the books are. Who knows what spin offs this will spawn.
