well, less because I didn't start till I got it at about 2am, so about four and a half hours yeah :D

i'm sorry i can't count. so non-stop reading? that takes dedication, amirite?

that's fine XD
yup :D I did the same thing for ootp because I didn't have to work the next day. but HBP I had to work at the county fair, so I slept and then brought the book with me to read during the down times.

(ootp took longer for me because I had to bawl for about 25 minutes when sirius died. I only cried once for this, although I did tear up a lot)

I'm still working on the book, but I did a ADIML on my Deathly Hallows day too(which I hope will be up sometime tomorrow).

I was a bit more snap happy at my Borders though. But I always am...XD

i love your pics of your mom! she is so cute :]

unrequited_rain July 21 2007, 20:59:16 UTC

thanks! normally she's really hard to take good pictures of, but the one with her and my sister is really good. I think I might have to print it off and frame it.

Ooh it took me 8 hours with some breaks. JK Rowling took this chance to toy with everyones emotions, I think.

unrequited_rain July 21 2007, 21:02:14 UTC
