A little public service announcement from Harry and the Potters
Edit: I think the New York Times would have done well to listen to this PSA. They managed to obtain a copy of the book before they were supposed to, and posted a review of it... days before the real release! The review gives away many major spoilers, according to MuggleNet.com. To Harry Potter fans, this action by the New York Times seems very irresponsible. Oh wow. Oh wow. I can't believe you, New York Times, I can't believe you.
I'm just glad that I never saw this book review while browsing the NY Times and mindlessly click on it then reading it before realizing that it contained spoilers. I mindlessly clicked another Harry Potter article on the NY Times front page today, but I had the sense not to continue reading after the first few lines, just in case it had spoilers.
I'm just glad I've seen minimal spoilers so far, and I hope I get spoiled no more.
