Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows THIS SUMMER????

The mind, she boggles. I wasn't expecting it until at least next year.

I shall have it late as usual -- curse my obsessive-compulsive desire for matching books and the fact that I'm too cheap to pay for overnight international shipping -- but I expect to enjoy it thoroughly.

And I *will* be good this time and not unintentionally spoil the ending for [livejournal.com profile] atropos333. Though to be fair, last time was my family spoiling the ending, not me.

Oh, and Robert Fabyan amuses me. He managed to blame the entirety of the Wars of the Roses on Marguerite of Anjou. Or at least on the fact that she married Henry VI, so I suppose he technically blames the Earl of Suffolk. Though I do need to get a different copy of the 1516 edition, as the entire Richard III section was missing from the one I was using today...

I'm going to buy it along with everyone else at Sectus!

It does make me wonder if they'll have to completely restructure the conference to allow for reading time. ;) Sadly I'll be in the States for the summer by then and cannot make it.

In the LJ tradition of totally irrelevant comments from someone you don't know, may I ask: who is that in your userpic?

She's been going pretty steadily at releasing them every other year for the last few books. It's coming about when I expected.

As for the ending? Rocks fall, everybody dies! ;)

My coworker at John Carroll was screeching into her cel phone at her friends, she was so happy about the HP news. I have decided to take the more subtle approach, in a little happy dance.

See? I'm done.
