The book is coming out the weekend after the Order of the Phoenix movie release. Now if Duran Duran would release an album and go on a summer tour, I will be in heaven!

Exactly what do they mean by "adult" and "children" editions?
The text is the same, it's just the binding or something, right?
I've been getting the trade size paperback Bloomsbury editions rather than the US Schoolastic ones and it's confused me everytime I see the adult/children thing on amazon.co.uk.

It's just the cover. They have a more adult looking cover so people on the Underground won't think you're reading a kids book. It's stupid, really.

I didn't think it would be as soon as that. Part of me thinks 'yay!', the other part of me doesn't want it all to be over in a few months time. I've been reading HP for years, so it'll be strange when it's all finished. Didn't think it'd be released so close to the OotP film either, ooh it's gonna be a very HP-ified July ;D

I wonder if it will help OOTP movie sales or hurt it? I would have spent that weekend going to the movies a few more times. Now, I will be reading Deathly Hallows that weekend and probably several more times before July is over. I suppose if OOTP is really good, which I am hopeful about, I will manage to see it several times. I am too excited, and yes, sad too. I really hope Harry lives.

Well I started reading Harry Potter when already book 4 was realised...I bought them in Dutch. So now with every new book, I have to wait (well since decided I only buy the Dutch versions) till the translated version is on sale. In the meantime I have to avoid spoilers on internet  Edit: Dutch version will be on sale 24th of november.... |
