Aw, Mike.  That stinks.  Well, there is one more book to come out, so one more chance for a book party in a couple of years.  The important thing is you got the book.  And you made some cool props!  I hope you're feeling better.

[EmmasOneandOnly]

Yeah, I'm feeling better now but of course, theres no party tonight

Aw Mike thats terrible *hugs*

[EmmasOneandOnly]

LOL, I love the book. Its so great

[Morningangel-Iola]

How are you doing with it Mike? I have started a poll to see how we are doing. I'm more than half way

[EmmasOneandOnly]

I posted in the thread. I'm a slow reader so

[Morningangel-Iola]

You are just savouring it. I'm usually quite slow but have put in a lot of hours

[EmmasOneandOnly]

I read some of it at the mall, in the car, and have been reading since I got home

[Morningangel-Iola]

My friend on the other forum where my fan fics are started reading at 12.30 and finished by 5.30

[EmmasOneandOnly]

WOW if I would have went I would have read till I was so tired I couldnt stay awake

[Morningangel-Iola]

I did think I might have finished if I had got mine at midnight but I didn't get it until nine, although I woke up at 6 and only dozed off and on after that.

[EmmasOneandOnly]

I think I'm doing pretty well for getting it so late.

[Morningangel-Iola]

Yeah not bad, I don't know if I will get any sleep tonight would love to finish it in one day have never done that with a book. Although two days wouldn't be bad I suppose

Oh Mike sorry you couldn't go to your party, but as Kelly said there is another book to come.  And that will be a party to end all parties.  Even I might go (child or no child )

Spooky thing happened Saturday morning though.  I am reading happilly in bed when the door bell rang at about 8.00am.  An incredilbly jolly postman hands over a large parcel and says 'here's your Harry Potter'

Well as I hadn't ordered one I thought 'nooooo, must be something else'.  But yes it was another copy; my Dad had won me one from the Daily Mirror.  I don't what shocked me the most; that I had won a prize or that the postman had shown up before noon and was happy
