Finished it!!  Azn

I started it at a quarter to one this morning (just after my other half had fetched it) and stayed up till four am-ish ... think that's when I fell asleep on the sofa ... then picked it up again at around half six this evening and have just finished reading it about half an hour ago! Wink

finished. Got it at a few minutes past 11am, was home 10 minutes later and had the book done by 3:30 I think. Quick read. And I was dying since most people on the messageboards I post on live in the US and didn't have their copies yet.
I want to read it again, specifically looking for clues and at some of the hints JKR has dropped.

I finished about half an hour ago.  I read at a decent pace, but I'm going to take a little break and then start rereading it.  I want to look for the hidden clues I missed! Wink
