OMG

I got the book at 3.15pm today.

I ran across the carpark (without opening the book), I drove home(without opening the book), I parked the car in the garage and put the key in a place where I'llfind it (without opening the book)

This took me until about 3.23pm (I'm so glad I preordered from the closest bookshop)

I read until 9.18pm, when I put down the book. Officially finished. 5 hours and 55 minutes.



OMG. OMG. OMG.

SNAPE! NEVILLE! MCGONAGALL!

Xenophilia (literally translated - love of strangers / strange things)

I actually screamed at one point "The Harmonians will be pissed". I've never used the word Harmonian in my life.

PERCY! MOLLY!

Remus was actually happy for a moment.

I adore Fleur/Bill because they're just nice.

SNAPE!

DOBBY! HEDWIG! MAD EYE! FRED!

SNAPE!

The half a bottle of red wine I've been drinking to mark Snape's passing . . . .

Yeah. So. I loved it.

Who's up for a reread?


ETA - OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH

MY Original Character WAS THERE. Ok she was the daughter of Hermione and Ron, not Harry and Ginny - but - HELLO ROSE, WELCOME TO CANON!!!!!

Was I the only one to think that Lizs ancient "girl most likely" kinda fits now?

Or maybe its just cuz I really wish Liz would finish that despite her huge protests of it never gonna happen :p

Book was mad ... I only cried twice ... when harry watched Snapes memories and when harry realised what he had to do ...

Dobby was saddening though :(

All in all I was pleased by the whole trhing (except of cause the lack of squid :p) Nice happy ending I thinkest :D

(You mean No Such Place - the big Lily/Snape fic? She's getting requests to finish it everywhere now, and she's laughing at them because they took so long to get on the bandwagon)

I really liked the ending though it's causing controversy everywhere *g*

OMG, 6 hours? It took me 8 but I read all night so I suppose some of that was getting up to putter around so I didn't fall asleep. :)

But YAY FOR HARRY POTTER!

Starting at 3pm-ish does make it easier. I did lose about 10 minutes when my sister rang . . .
