You mean there are different books to read???? I must admit, I have bought all the books but as for everything else, theyu're still being written faster than I can read 'em, so come on people, read something else for a change.

No, there'll be a brief upsurge while we talk about the book, compare reactions, mourn the loss of whatever character dies, and do the happydance of "my theory was righter than yours!!!" at each other.
And then it'll die down.
Honestly, can you blame us? I can hardly sleep, the anticipation is so great. Besides - 10 years ago, would you or anyone have ever believed that the furor would be this high over a book, of all things? A movie, maybe, but a book? I understand it might be pretty annoying if you're not caught up in the fervor yourself (although if you haven't read the books, you're missing out on a lot. My best friend had to wheedle and kick me in the behind before I picked up the first one, b/c I thought they were going to be stupid kid books, but boy, was I wrong. By this point especially, they're intense, insightful, and very compelling - and really not "kids' books" anymore.), but at least take comfort in the fact that an entire generation is being introduced to the joys - not the teacher-assigned drudgeries - of reading. I think a little over-enthusiasm is a fair price to pay for that.

No. They will then have to discuss who died how theyu died and why hey died. Then they will have to ask about the last word of the book(WHO CARES???) and it will go on and on and maybe Yahoo will finally give them their OWN listing and it will be easier to ignore them.

probably not. Cause then will come the questions about the reactions to the book, the theories that were right or wrong, etc. ONly then will the questions actually increase!

Nope, sorry we're obsessed, but they will slow down.
And I love to read, so I'm glad that other books will be on here.

Wishful thinking...but it will never happen. I guess us non HP readers will just have to ride it out. ;-)
